the soil shouldn’t need nutrients for like 3-4 weeks
or there should be some kind of instruction on the bottle. otherwise im sure someone here has the schedule for fox farm nutes
but if that’s the soil ur using, u should be good on nutes probably a couple more weeks

@Hershy421 is absolutely correct.
It’s a bad idea to supplement nutrients at first.
FF ocean forest is a pretty rich soil and will carry the plant a good month if not 6 weeks or so.
As for which nutrient line is better? I’d say which ever one cost you less money 
Despite what marketing suggests, All nutrients are basically the same as in none are “better” then other. Nutrients are minerals and all minerals are the same. NPK is NPK and plants can not tell tje difference…
Lotus nutrients can get expensive where they split everything up into multiple bottles where FF has less bottles. But either one will do just fine if used properly 
In my opinion it’s a good idea to pick one and stick to it untill you have mastered it then try new stuff if ya wanted to .

You’ll need to use a PPM meter to measure your runoff PPM, which should be targetted at 1,000.
You won’t need to feed at all for 4 to 6 weeks if in FF OF. Use a PPM meter to test the runoff and begin feeding when PPM dips below 1,000.
