 Noob asking about feeding schedual

So, I haven't QUITE started up yet, but I figure it really can't hurt to know my plan ahead of time.
I just purchased Grow Big, Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom from Fox Farm. I was poking around, and found the following feeding chart:
http://www.foxfarmfertilizer.com/soilfeed.pdf
Does this look accurate to you guys?
Also - where multiple things are listed, do I put both in? For example, week 7 and 8 of the chart suggest feeding all 3. 2 tsp ea of grow and tiger bloom, and 1 tbsp of big bloom.
Does that mean I mix a total of 4 table spoons, and 1 tbsp into my gallon of water?
Also - it suggests only feeding every-other watering. Is this a common practice?
Thanks!

Yep! Fox Farm Ocean Forest.
I've found such awesome deals on their stuff...I just can't pass it up! :]

JUst remember to use nutrients like every other two waterings, I found salts to build-up more easier with it.

I found that schedule to be a little heavy, but it could just be my genetics.
Remember to always start low (1/4 or 1/2 doses etc) and add to it till you think your plants are happy and healthy. Lighting, ventilation, genetics and other environmental factors will all add to nutrient uptake ability and you have to find your own sweet spot.

Not to derail this thread, but how can you go giving new members advice on nutrients when you just made 200 posts last night admitting how overwhelmed you are trying to chose nutrients for YOUR first grow?
You really need to be careful with this advice trip. the full strength nutrients are NOT safe for seedlings.

My job as a moderator in this website it's my job to promote the spread of correct information pertaining to cannabis cultivation and quench the flow of ill-informed advice from inexperienced users. you're more than welcome to share what you've read and what you think is the truth but you can't spread it as the gospel and claim that you're the next magash.
you don't know as much as you think. here's an example;
To the OP- Fox farm ocean forest soil is naturally laden with high quantities of organic matter that will be broken down into food for your plant for at least a month or two. if you're using Ocean Forest you won't need to use ANY nutes at all until around the time flowering begins. I've even seen some strains not need nutrients for the entire grow with that soil.
additionally, I wouldn't feed every other watering. organic nutrients in soil are stored for considerably longer than nutrients in a hydroponic medium, so feeding once every 3-4 waterings should be sufficient. Remember, you're feeding the microbes in the soil, not the plant itself.
And the most important part, this comes from personal experience, not from just reading what people say.
good luck with your grow, and don't hesitate to ask questions when they arrive

yes it was. you told him to feed every other watering and use the schedule on the FF website. Both of which are completely incorrect. I'm not pissy, I'm doing my job. keep bickering in this thread and arguing with my advice and I'll continue to do my job

 My apologies to the OP, I really didn't intend for this to turn into an argument but I apparently trod on somebodies ego and they can't let it go.
I repeat, DO NOT feed at the strength recommended by FF from the start, it WILL kill your plants if you feed them 2tbsp per gallon as seedlings. Triptonic thinks that's acceptable, but it's wrong. I have a sworn duty to counter incorrect advice on this forum when I see it, and that's what I'm doing. once again, I apologize for derailing this thread, twas not my intention

All you needed to say is that what I said was wrong, and correct me so I will know in the future. I thought it said 2 tsp. not 2 tbsp.  but you think that the company would know what they are talking about.

they're in the business of selling nutrients, they tell you to use extra so you buy extra. just like dog food. they don't care if your dog gets fat, they just want you to run out and get more of their product

Exactly harry!!!
I Barely use nutes. I use 1/4 of the recommended amounts, sometimes 1/2 and have had no deficiencies really.

Or you can do like Magash does and pump as many nutes to your plant as it will handle in order to get bigger yields.
Makes sense to me. I'm about to find out.

oh I'm all for feeding the plants as heavy as they can handle, but that's done by slowly stepping up the feeding schedule and growing the same strain multiple times to determine exactly how much they can handle. just jumping straight to full strength with seedlings in the hopes that they will grow faster will not end well

I agree with the practice of using more nutrients rather than less during the Veg. cycle however during flowering there is nothing worse than having a over fertilized plant leading to HARSH smoke!!!

It's my understanding no matter how much you give the plant as long as you allow ample flushing time at the end of the grow the flavor will be fine.
Also this is:thumbsup:

Wow, is that right? I must have picked some good shit then!
This leads me to more questions.
Will feeding them along side these nutes that are already in the soil damage them? I know I should start out with half, or quarter strength...but could I over do by feeding them? I'll stick to the every 3-4 waterings then...my nutes will last a lot longer that way!
And...should I put my seedlings directly into this soil? I know you aren't supposed to feed them right away...and if the food is right IN the soil, will it damage them? Should I start them in something else first?
Thanks again for all the help everyone! Both the soil and the nutes just left Cali today...the seeds are supposed to be on their way, and maybe I'll have this started next week!

Like harry said it's pretty rich stuff you wont need any extras until they are a good bit past the seedling stage but there should be no problems putting them right into it. It's not so hot it will burn them.
And harry if I am wrong go ahead and blast me I am only posting cause I can't sleep.

lol sorry I'm not blasting anyone. trip just loves to get in fights.
you're right on point with that
to RasJeph- over feeding can be very painful to your plants and can even kill them. I'd let them grow into your soil with nothing but water for about a month and then we'll see if they're hungry

I think we all secretly love a good flame war but we'll keep that aside.
Hey ras have you thought of doing an official grow log? I follow most of them that are updated regularly and even though no one writes in mine it has helped me organize and plan as the grow changes. I have been able to look back and see what changed and when and how fast. It also has made this first grow seem very fast which is nice cause I am an impatient SOB

Here
It's my buddies plant technically but I am the brains behind it. His last plant came out worse then Coasters so as you will see it's a big improvement.
Plus I might take the freeezer or build another one soon and have it here for some of the clones which soon wont have space but wife isn't quite kosher with that idea and having the kid here.

Yeah, I'll be doing a grow log for sure
Its gonna be small...I'll only be doing 2 or 3 plants at a time, and dwarfing them a little because of the space I have available...but, it'll be a log nonetheless. :P
So...the inside of my cabinet is just wood colored. I was going to get some reflective stuff, but I'm running a bit low on funds. I have some "primer white" paint left over...is that preferable to just wood?
I'd make a new thread for it, but it looks like you guys keep checking in here, so I won't bother :P
Kinda hope that'll work...I'm itching to get this started, and that'll give me something to do today

oh yeah flat white paint is even better then mylar, well mylar reflects 100% or very close and flat white reflects 95%ish. so for its cost and ease of use a lot of people like white better.

well primer should be pretty flat, i don't know why everyone says flat but thats why i said it, i used semi gloss on mine cause that's what my painter buddy had extra of. I really don't think it matter to much as long as its a good bright white color.

Actually it is common knowledge that Ocean Forest can be too hot for many strains, at seedling age at least. I've cloned into straight soil before and had success, but I recently cloned into Ocean Forest, I know I was high and not thinking too much, and 4 of the 6 are burnt right up.
2 of them actually survived though, so at least I know those 2 strains are the ones I will clone.
Generally you should either cut the OF for seedlings, and after 2 weeks they will be able to handle straight OF, with some perlite if you choose.
The last bag I got had so much perlite in it, that I didn't need to add anything, it almost drains too fast; because I can't seem to "soak" it all without it all running out the bottom, oh well. I'm glad I planned ahead for water seeping out.

Really well I take it back then It seems everyone uses it and I had never heard of a need to cut it for seedlings. I guess most people usually add perlite though any ways from the start.

It varies strain to strain.
It was personally way to hot for my seedlings, I had to cut it with some regular potting soil so they didn't fry.

OK, cool! I'm glad I asked :]
The only other thing I have on hand is coir...could I just start in that, then move them over at the 2 week mark? Or will that fuck with them too much?
I'm gonna reserve a spot in the grow log section, since I started setting things up today And that way I can maybe gather my thoughts in a post before my stuff arrives!

Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?

That sounds like a great idea. You could also just mix like 30% FFOF and 70% coir for now, just keep them in a Solo cup for 2 weeks then transplant to OF or OF+Perlite.

My exact plan! 
I started my log in the appropriate section...got a picture of my cabinet in there, 'cause I painted it today.
Thanks again for all the help guys...I'm sure I'll be back with more questions as I progress!

No problem RJ, that's what I'm here for. I don't know EVERYTHING, but I have been at it for 10 years now, so I've definitely learned a lot along the way.
