Hey guys I'm new to the site . I'm on my 3rd grow about to change to hps light and reduce for flowering I'm running a 400 watt mh for veg and 600 watt hps for flower. What is the best npk to use going in to flowering to get the best yield?

Oh i see 3 rd grow.dont complicate it with npk ratios.iv been growing in soil for a decade and i dont bother with em to much except wen pickin my nutes and even then its just a customery glance to see which has the highest ratios.i just use base grow & bloom nutes.some molasses and a booster like canna boost although i u could get away without the molasses and boosters if u wanted to really simplify it.maybe get a bottle of calmag for ogeez and the like.

One thing in particular i always warn newer growers about is over watering.almost every new grower thinks that its better for the roots to have plenty of water consistently.its not.you really need to let the medium dry out a good bit between waterings.lift the pot before and after watering to giv u an idea of wen u need to water.the logic is the roots like a lot of oxygen and u want your roots to go looking for moisture.keeping your root zone healthy and happy is really important.

My current setup about to move to a large room that I've set up ventilation in and made a small closet for veg. I'm in the process of painting it bright white right now.
