11 days from seedling. When do I fert?

Do a search for Low-stress training (or LST) and read, lots of articles on it. Smell can be overwhelming if you have nothing in place. The further in flower the worse (better?) the smell. Especially with the numbers you are doing. 6 plants can easily stink up a 3 bedroom 2 story house. Smell control depends on your budget, carbon scrubbers, ONA, and some saying this vaportek product with the neutral disks works also.

although I've only used ONA and carbon.

Thx for the link on odor control Greeny. I appreciate it. does the scrubber have to be attached to anything? I hardly have company over so I dont think it will be a problem. Only people I have come over is my older brother and a way older friend in his 40's whos back went out on him when he was younger and so I treat him for his chronic back pains with the herb that I grow. I feel bad for him cuz he cant get a job or anything. Other than occasional visits from those two, I dont really have company over my place. But good looking out on the odor control. Glad to know that there are people who care on these forums. Any feedback on Big Bloom nutes such as how much to apply, how often, and at what stage to apply. Thanks alot
 
With that many plants, depending on how big ur house is the smell will seep outside.
I've heard many good things about vaportek, but with a hydrohut carbon scrubbing should not be a problem.
*edit* The extractor fan connects to the scrubber so it pulls air through it, then attach dryer hose to the back of the fan and out the hut. I just plan on eventually getting both types of vaporteks and a bunch of disks. Saves space and it should cover up all the smokeouts too, plus im curous as to how good the scents smell (use nuetral for MJ odor control, dont want any mixing)

For big bloom (or any nute), just follow the instructins. Mix 1/4 TBsp into a gallon jug and water (or whatever the instructions say).

Now I would normally say water every three days, with the ferts, but with those gallons, idk. Wait till they complelely dry out and lift them up, get a feel for how heavy they are, then water them. And feel the weight. Ocassionly pick them up, see if there is still water in there, and if not water them.

Keep track of how much each strain drinks, and put it on a timetable. Then you have how often to water. Fert them every 3 days. (you could switch it up, 2wice a day, or one day, skip the other). Im not sure how quickly they can down the nutes in those gallons. Thats another reason why bigger containers is better, food gets trapped for awhile, plants have it available longer, whereas with smaller ones they can exhaust it quicker.

Dont forget to try and clone a couple of em. You are probally thinking nothing of cloning your first time around, but this is the best time to do it (when ya got nothing to lose, no hopes). Lots off diff ways to fool around with, but one method that works for me is a liter or 2L coke bottles, cut the top off. Put the clone in rockwool and put that in the 2L, mist the inside and cover w/ saran wrap. Roots in 12-13 days (9 days seems to be the quickest, but I dont really care)
I usually put them on top of my comp. for warmth (and better humidifying), but a heat mat would work, just make sure its not the ones that get hot.
