New Grower russian rocket fuel nute schedule?

[steve1214]

Can anyone reccomend a specific nute schedule for Russian rocket fuel? Ill be using fox farms ocean forest soil and fox farms trio nutrients. I plan on starting nutes at week 3 of veg. Thx in advance.

I've found that RRF grows easily without a lot of special needs. Last time I had it in a mix of 1/3 perlite and 2/3 OF and it did fine with FullDuplex's nute schedule:

Week

1 pH water only

1.5 add in Big Bloom to the mix at 1/2 tea spoon

2 1/2tsp Grow Big 1/2 tsp Big Bloom

2.5 3/4 tsp of grow big

3 1tsp grow big and 1/2 Tiger bloom 1/2 tea spoon Big Bloom

3.5 1/2 tsp Grow Big 1/2tsp Tiger bloom

4 1tsp Tiger bloom 1/2 tsp Grow Big

4.5 Clean pH'ed water to clear out salt build up

5 2tsp tiger bloom 1/2 grow big

5.5 1 Teaspoon Grow Big

6 Begin Flush for the final weeks. At this point i can flush for a week before i begin to see yellowing of the fans.


I can't say that I followed that exactly, but it's a good guideline. I started nutes before the third week, but anywhere between 2-3 should be fine as long as the plant seems to be OK with it. The only thing I would add is that the autos I've grown usually like a good feeding of calmag around week 3-4.

I would for sure incorporate some root inoculates, beneficial bacteria and fungi. Makes a world of difference.

Does ocean forest have beneficial bacteria in it? Wat type of inoculates wuld u reccomend?

They'll help in the early phase of growth, but the salts in Grow Big and Tiger Bloom will either kill or greatly reduce the effectiveness of the myco herd as you use them. That's why recommends that you keep adding their myco products over and over throughout the grow. It won't hurt to keep inoculating if you can afford it, but it's a losing proposition IMO.

I'm running some RRF right now, straight Pro Mix HP and AN pH Perfect nutes. I'm seeing they are a bit nute sensitive so I'd suggest going easy on the nutes in the beginning, especially since you're going to be in OF, which already contains worm castings and guano. Start with 1/4 strength and watch your plants for any signs of over feeding. If they like that, then slowly work up in strength.
