Dropping knowledge. In three.....Two....One:
Wrong! Foxfarm contains enough nutrients to sustain plants for 1-2 months. You are correct on the fact that most growers fail here with FFOF and give up.
At this stage in the plants life you should have confidence.
You have a bush in a bag of FFOF and its been 3 weeks. The leaves are starting to lose their dark green color. Add nitrogen....problem solved right?
Not quite...The roots needs more then just nutes. They need a healthy soil that is always growing(Never stop transplanting into fresh bag of FFOF).
I add some cal/mag to the water feed every month or so just in case.
The real secret lies in soil inoculation with endos and ectos. To achieve a good balance in the soil beneficial microbes are needing to be replenished. The endos and ectos help the relationship between roots and soil by attaching fungus to make special fungus roots that tap into the cannabis roots and supply it.
The more soil you add the better because the roots want to be cool. I use black bags in the summer to increase humidity in the roots zone. I also poke big holes and roll the bags around every once in awhile because the roots needs just as much oxygen as the leaves ok well all most look it up!
Now you know my secrets go get some good bush.
