Yes, there are different dry nutrients for veg and flower. But I agree with you, dry is the way to go for outdoor, IMO.My question though is about veg vs flower, is there a difference in dry amendments for the different stages? I know absolutely nothing about organic but if there's one product I can buy and use from seed to harvest in my outdoor that would be amazing. I have 2 fixing to flower soon and 2 I just planted so something that could feed both would be cool (I try to get by using transplants instead of nutes in the veg stage but I just planted an auto in it's final pot so can't do that)
Here they are

They aren't flowering quite yet. Well one isn't atleast, one started to but I think is now in reveg for reasons I don't know.Yes, there are different dry nutrients for veg and flower. But I agree with you, dry is the way to go for outdoor, IMO.
Are they starting to flower? If so, you only need the bloom nutrients. If they're not starting to flower and money is tight, you might just say fuck it, they're getting bloom nutrients the whole way. But if you do that, make sure those bloom nutes have some nitrogen. "Bloom boosters" usually have almost no nitrogen.
I like Roots dry amendments and soils. The "terp teas" have worked well during the grow I'm doing now.Look at roots organic dry amendments
Awesome thanks for the tips! They didn't have a red bag at the store just the one I got and then the acid loving plants purple bag, is the red bag the tomato one?The yellow bag stuff is good but doesn't absorb into the soil too well.
Cut the directions in half or even a third or else you'll just end up with a pile of the stuff on your top layer.
Also mix it with your water then pour.
Though the blood meal will probably dissolve right thru on it's own.
The yellow bag is a little more flower specific than the red bag. But it will be the right thing in just a few weeks here anyway.
I've heard good things about both of those to my dismay though they didn't have either at the store
I’m using the same roots organic terp tea line right now in FFOF except their micro booster. I’m using the Great White product line for that. Highly recommend their stuff too.I like Roots dry amendments and soils. The "terp teas" have worked well during the grow I'm doing now.
That will work fine. Use a 3 prong cultivator or your fingers and work it into the top inch of the soil around your plants don't be afraid to break the roots, it will actually stimulate more growth.So I just got done at the grow store. Having no idea what I'm really doing and trying to put together something I can use for the majority of a grow I walked away with this:

What are yalls thoughts? Between my budget and the overwhelmingness of the organic section that's what I came up with, wish there was more potassium though
They didn't have the roots brand or anything I really recognize outside of the fox farms but then again I dont do organic
Wanted to add that I found their terp tea grow to be pretty hot. Easy to feed to much of it. I am following their feed chart for dry amendments in soil. It assumes a 10 - 20 g pot and goes up from there. So I use it more for figuring ratios when feeding more than one terp tea product. E.g bloom and boost. But I go by the bag instructions with 1 tsp per g of soil for amount. I’m in 7g fabs and just fed for week 5. Last feed by their chart is in week 7. Back at week 2 of flower I got a little tip clawing from to much N from the grow terp tea. Didn’t burn leaf tips or leaf surface. She hasn’t missed a beat and looks great other than a few claws. Those will never go away after being N toxic.I like Roots dry amendments and soils. The "terp teas" have worked well during the grow I'm doing now.
I didn't use their veg nutes this time, because I tried their Lush soil, and when you're transplanting every week or two, they don't need anything else. A bit pricey, but it sure saved time, and I really needed that.I’m using the same roots organic terp tea line right now in FFOF except their micro booster.

Check that great white stuff out. Pricey but a little goes a long way and it busts those roots out bro. Couldn’t ask for better root growth.I didn't use their veg nutes this time, because I tried their Lush soil, and when you're transplanting every week or two, they don't need anything else.

Until I stop working 7 days a week (January 1, 2023!!!), pre-mixed organic soils, loaded with nutes, is how I have to grow. I'll look for it.Check that great white stuff out. Pricey but a little goes a long way and it busts those roots out bro. Couldn’t ask for better root growth.
The Lush is a water only soil no?Until I stop working 7 days a week (January 1, 2023!!!), pre-mixed organic soils, loaded with nutes, is how I have to grow. I'll look for it.
The blood meal is faster acting but you can use it in combination with the fruit and flower fertilizer to create a more veg focused blend. I would do a top dress of the fruit and flower, then top dress a small amount of the blood meal weekly until flowering is well under way (in addition to more fruit and flower fertilizer every 3 to 4 weeks).So I just got done at the grow store.

Awesome dude that's exactly what I was hoping to do so I'm really glad to hear y'all think it will work.The blood meal is faster acting but you can use it in combination with the fruit and flower fertilizer to create a more veg focused blend.

Ive never used these specific fertilizers but I mix my own blends with alfalfa meal, insect frass, crab meal, and turkey trot.
