## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long does the bad smell last?  I am considering using this for indoor potted trees.  Will it stink up my house for long?**
A: All of the nutrients stink but once you mix them in water the smell isn’t bad. I’ve had an indoor grow for 3 years and we use all 13 flavors of Fox Farm. Great stuff! You can also print a feeding schedule from there site

**Q: Is this water soluble?**
A: Yes. Depending on your setup you mix it in a gallon of water or your reservoir for hydro. You can get a feeding schedule from Google.  Just query fox farm feeding scuedule

**Q: Can this be used to plant germinated seeds?**
A: I wouldn’t worry about any sort of nutrient in the first few weeks typically, potting mix is usually sufficient for a couple weeks from seed regardless of plant type.

**Q: Why does the lid have a little round hole in it?**
A: I don't think mine had a hole in the lid.
