Question I have to be answered?

[Doublekush]

Hi all hope you’re well and growing strong!

Just a few questions from a newbie….

While in the flowering stage how often should I be giving the plant nutrients? Every feed? Every other feed?

Also should I only feed p and k nutes during flowering or should I continue still but with smaller amounts of cal mag and nitrogen nutes?

You can see the grow on my profile if you like

thanks in advance for your answers

What nutrients are you using


In flower you need a higher p/k ratio to n however you don’t just cut the n out totally

As for ca mg depends on the nutes your using & your water content. You may or may not need to add any

By your photos your having a hard time getting the nutes right in flower

It may also be due to your watering habits to boot so one problem is causing another

I’ve a feeling it maybe more food related mind

Used shogun samurai terra grow as the main veg nute with small amounts of bio biz grow and bio biz calmag, started them on bigbud during flower.

I’m not educated on feeding as much as I’d like, I’ve been following what it says on the bottles but can’t find anything decent online about how often to feed and what nutrients to use at different stages

Thanks

Generally every feed

Generally every feedwould I just quarter the amount of nitrogen nutrient and add more p and k during flowering?

Yes, but keep an eye on the n.
Some strains have a higher tolerance than others in flower. Might have to tick it down more of gove every other feed while maintaining p amd k at the regular clip.

Oh, and don’t be scared to feed your p and k throughout the flowers cycle especially when you hit mid to late flower I mean, go nuts man try giving them full blast from where you’re at that point. step it up incrementally so by the time you hit week four week five you’ll be giving them a full dose every feed.
But only do that if you’re gonna keep a diligent eye on your plants otherwise you can play it safe and do half three-quarter dose all the way through till harvest

I’m already giving them the full dose recommended on the bottle, as I say I’m using big bud, I’ll be adding overdrive the last four weeks flowering, should I keep using big bud when I use the over drive? Or switch to overdrive?

And just to clarify what I’ve read, is it 2 week flush before harvest?
