For liquid feed I always recommend starting with 1/2 dose of what the manufacture says for photoperiods and like 1/4-1/3 for auto flowers since they are a bit more touchy. Most of these companies have a number you can call or an online chat feature that's also super helpful.

I haven't used your nutes, but the right answer to your question will depend on a lot of things, including whether you're using soil that includes nutritional amendments. In an amended soil, you don't feed very much.

It may be formulated with hydro growing in mind, but just like other hydro nutes on the market it can be used with a soil grow if you can convert to correct feeding quantities. Growing in a shelf soil rich in nutes could be dicey but a low nutrient mix like coco, peat and perlite you have less of that unknown variable.

Well they were in 1 gal fabric geo pots with fix farm ocean forest mix and also used some mycrorrhizae powder i threw in there when I transplanted them into the 1 gal pots.i am going to be upgrading to new soil i thi k im going ot use coast of maine stockington mix but if you know of something better please let me know. I have them in a 4x4 tent and I havent transplanted them into the 5 gal geopots yet and have had them under a shitty grow light on a 18-6 schedule and all ive given them sp far is bottles water, spring i belive. I just got my tent set up with my light and fan and etc. Got a mars hydro 4x4 tent with the fc-e4800 light & inline fan w/carbon filter combo. I know its not the best but didn't wanna spring for the fancy shit on my first grow ya know. Oh ya Got a dust shroom im using on outside of tent to prevent dust from entering into my tent from the room im in cause the fight with dust never ends over here lol but I been attacking it on all fronts know that. Anyway I have been giving them only water as of now and am going to give them there first feeding of nutrients in 2 days I think. Im going to give then the Cali Pro veg and &b. If there's anything else I should get for these last few weeks of veg before I flip the lights please let me know cause I go to my local grow shop a lot lately and will be there today again so will pick uo anything if you guys think I need it. Im also going up be using RO water from this fist feeding & onwards. I've been watching a lot of videos and after doing that I dont think ill need the 1 gallon sized jugs of the Emerald harvest line up I was asking about earlier, I think i csn just get the 1 quart or two quart sized sized bottles and that will be enough. But if if wrong please let me know. After watching some videos and talking to people on reddit (before I found this app cause this app is the absolute coolest shit ever going to help me sooo much I already can tell) I think im going to spring for the while emerald harvest line up for the flowering cycle i got upcoming. The Cali pro bloom A&B, Honey Chome, King Kola, emerald goddess, root wizard, cal-mag & sturdy stalk. Is there anything g else I might need that is a must have? I know i kind of answered my own question but I really appreciate all the feedback has really made me fo from stressing on this to feeling way better because I can tell this is a great community of people who are really awesome and who are more than willing to help people like me and thats going to he and already is such a blessing g for someone like me so in all seriousness, thank you all for that. SO THAT BEING SAID, should I wait til I transplant into 5 gal pots before I give them the Cali pro veg a&b? Or should I just go for it? Also when do I top these puppies? Will post pics as well. Damn sorry I feel like a kindergartener right now getting all excited and asking his teachers 100 questions a minute lol sorry for that guys. Can't wait to hear back from everyone. Im from NorCal by the way, LOST COAST LOCAL where's everyone from?

I'm curious why you decided on Emerald?

Break up your long posts into sections
or short paragraphs. It makes it much
easier to read

Important: when using silica and cal-mag,
you must mix the silica 1st, then the calmag
then the rest of your nutes.

edit to add: Oh, and if and when you have
problems, ask here and try and get a consensus
before making any drastic changes.

Are Emerald harvest nutrients good

I use and advocate use of Emerald Harvest nutrients, absolutely. I hear they are working on an organic line, as well. Would love to see that. I cannot speak for EH's 3 part series, but their 2 part "Cali Pro" series is excellent. Potent stuff, all of their products - a little goes a long way...

@Deadstill, Hey bro (or sis) David is wanting
to use Emerald nutes, any tips or advice for him?

Lemme look at your nute selection and advise.
on the soil. I use for farms exclusively. The Ocean Forest os a good product but can benifit from some extra perlite, 3-4 cups is about normal but I have seen mixes in journals where it is mixed 50-50 and ran with a hydro nutes.
OF soil has nutes for 3-4 weeks depending on how spot on your grow is. The nutrition in OF is also self regulating as is the PH in the soil as long as all you add is water. At this point you have an easy to manage organic grow until nutes. lemme look at them and respond.
