The Fox Farm feeding schedule is no joke. It might be over the top for some growers, but others willing to go the distance will appreciate it. The Fox Farm feeding schedule uses a vast array of fertilizers designed to enhance your grow. At times, the feeding schedule can be somewhat overwhelming as it requires up to 8 fertilizers in one application. Although easy to follow, the schedule is not for all growers. Some growers don’t have the time or the patience. However, those looking to take their grow to the next level will find that it is worth it.

When using the Fox Farm feeding schedule, I recommend using a premium potting soil. I’ve always been a big fan of Fox Farm because of my success with Ocean Forest. In my opinion, Ocean Forest is one of the best soils available for growing. When starting a new grow, I strongly recommend using a premium soil because it provides a nice buffer and sets you up for success. For small plants like clones and seedlings, Ocean Forest has enough nutrients to last 4 to 5 weeks on its own. Be cautious when applying fertilizers to small plants because they don’t need that much at this stage and can easily burn your plants.

A successful harvest stems from healthy plants. This requires a proper amount of food packed with healthy nutrients. If you are following the Fox Farm feeding schedule, you more than likely are using the Dirty Dozen. The Dirty Dozen is Fox Farm’s complete fertilizer line. It costs around $80 and comes with everything you need. However, if you decide that the Dirty Dozen/feeding schedule is not for you, you can opt for Fox Farm’s Trio. The trio is a more simplified fertilizer regiment. I would also like to point out that the feeding schedule is designed for the Dirty Dozen. Therefore the instructions on an individual bottle will differ from what is recommended on the feeding schedule. As you will notice, the feeding schedule will require less of certain nutrients because it accounts for the additional nutrients on the schedule.

  1. Hi there! I have been searching forever to learn more about outdoor growing laws in San Diego County. I love growing and I live on a good amount of acreage, but I thought that outdoor growing wasn’t legal yet in California. I really can’t find anything that states it clearly, do you have any info on that?
    And also I love Fox Farms nutrients and soil! I use grow big, big bloom, and tiger bloom!

  2. Outdoor growing in legal in Chula Vista and Oceanside and other unincorporated areas of San Diego. But NOT San Diego city. (as of 3/13/19). Look up: http://www.thecannifornian.com/cannabis-business/database-see-cannabis-laws-support-differ-among-california-cities/

  3. Referencing Fox Farms feeding schedule chart. What week should I be using when going from veg to flower?

  4. I have found that vegging plants to 8 weeks gives me the best results after experimenting with veg times and lengths. 1 week for transition, then 8 to 14 weeks til harvest(depending on what you are growing, indica or sativa). I usually harvest when the aroma is at it’s strongest or the plant has reached it’s maximum flowering time, trichomes aren’t amber (maybe 10% at the most). I alternate weekly 1 feeding of nutrients, then 2-4 days later plain water. I do this throughout the entire grow.
