Hey All!

First off I'd like to say that I've really enjoyed watching all your grows this year. I couldn't have grown such nice plants this year without this site. I've got about 7 female plants out this year and I'm really happy with them. I topped all but one and they are dense little bushes. They have about 1" diameter stalks and are about 5'6" tall. I'm in northern New England and they have all just started flowering about a week or two ago. I have been watering about once every 2 weeks during veg with FoxFarms Grow Big and Big bloom.

Now I'm wondering how often to water for flowering with Tiger Bloom and if it by itself is enough. I've been bringing out 1 gallon of water/plant and mixing in 4 tsp tigerbloom and 3tsp big bloom (I'm out of grow big). I've been going out to water about once per week now. Is this enough? Should I be using anything else...maybe a bit more Phosperous?

Thanks and happy growing!

Check out there feeding schedule.

Its a good place to start you may have to adjust the feeding to the individual plant needs.
I have been using it as is and have had good success but my plants but half the size of yours.
Tiger bloom is very acidic this may be a problem depending on your soil.

Thanks for the info KRAIN. I've been using that chart but it looked like it was geared towards indoor growing where the light schedule is more controlled. Do most people water outdoors with more than a gallon/plant/week?

At max per gal ----- 2tsp TB, 2tbl BB. I normally go 1/4 - 1/2 dose TB & 1/2 dose everything else, every other watering. That's just me. Listen to your plants, they will tell you what they need.
ps I grow under a fake sun
