Here is the original response i posted in my thread recently in case you didnt see.
When growing outdoors, bloom is not necessary. The gradual shortening of day length forces flowering. When growing indoors under lights where photo period is reduced to force flowering, bloom (high phosphorus) chemically reinforces the message of shorter days to accelerate the switch from vegetative growth to reproductive growth (flowering). Technically, it is not essential nutritionally but serves as a chemical messenger.

I am saying that in my test grows with multiple runs of known cuts i used to keep for testing that the flowers fertilized with the kind trio bloom and base in 12/12 finished up to 2 weeks earlier but with less yield and less full head and body potency, flavor and smell (perceived by is and multiple patients) than the same plant grown with the grow and base bottles. Which finished up to 2 weeks later and with 15% average more yield.
We repeated this test and then did it with the
pure blend pro grow and bloom soil.
I feel that this shows what dyna grow is saying and the higher phosphorous sparked earlier and faster bloom. But that this is only good for profit and not quality. If i felt the quality was higher i would choose that over yield.
And for lighting i use 2 600hps in deep direct down lighting reflectors in a 3.5’x7’ space. Medium high light by modern standards. No co2
