No thats the use of to much miracle grow to early.is it the NPK 15-30-15 all purpose fert?
If so stop using it until you start flowering and use something with similar ratio's like NPK 20-20-20 for vegging if you can only get cheap fertilizers,but if you can ,get a good cannabis veg & bloom fertilizer as miracle grow is shit.

You don't need to go to a hydro shop. Go to any decent plant store or nursery. They'll have all sorts of fertilizers and plant foods, both organic and chemical....assuming you can't order ferts for cannabis. Sometimes, even WalMart, Home Depot, and Lowes will have ferts you can use.

You may not need to go to a grow store, but you MUST have a fert that includes micro nutrients. Boron,iron, copper,manganese,zinc and molybdenum. If it isnt in the fert description, it wont have them..

go to a smaller garden supply store. they will have organic nutes. they even sell alaska fish at walmart. miracle gro sucks for weed except in the most minute doses. the soil is terrible too those time release ferts fuck your ph up forever even after lots of flushing.

Organic nutes are for soil. When growing soiless your ferts must include both macro and micro nutrients.
I take it back, you do need to go to a grow store.

That will be a definite news flash for all the organic growers out there, me included....who grow organically in a "soiless mix".

What exactly are you saying?

PS

The first thing this guy has to do is: Make up his mind what kind of grow he's going to do, then go from there. It's called planning. And yeah I'm in a smartass mood.

 

[jcisnew]

LOL..He's not using a mix.

You still haven't explained that remark about organics and soiless mixes.

Its easy. No matter how you grow,your plants will require Nitrogen, phosporus, potassium, calcium, sulphur and magnesium.(Macro nutrients) They will also need boron, iron,copper, manganese, molybdenum and zinc (Micro nutrients). These must be in the medium (in your case the mix) or in the nutrients you use.. or you will have sick plants.
Absobloodylutly is growing in a medium that has no nutrients, so when he picks his fert it must be complete.
