Yes ... Personally I don't switch to bloom nutes at all but rather taper the feed down at the end. But if you plan to switch to bloom nutes I would wait until week 3 of flower.
Really? come on you guys, again things I thought I had covered you flip the switch on me again. I've seen vids from (so called) pros and they up some of the bloom nutes a week before turning them to tell the plants to get ready its time to flower. The directions on the label say to increase 1st week of flower, Now you guys ( that I respect the opinion of ) say no bloom nutes till week 3? ooops to late this grow lol week 2 and I've fed them twice + the frowned upon Kool Bloom twice ( as the label directs ). I've always done it this way because I'm not smart enough to argue with the recommended doses other than to use about half of what's posted on the label.
So some of those pros you are talking about have everything dialed in and yes there may be a small benefit to say slight increase in phosphorus the week before and week of flip. Then some increase in potassium for weeks 3-6 (this is all rough info). We are talking about splitting hairs in grows under full environmental controls and likely CO2 with small benefits. You can't translate that into the home grower that doesn't have all aspects of the grow working in peak performance where that's only when your going to see a difference.
Yes sir
I think we were on the NPK ratios but not the 3 weeks into flower before the start of bloom nutes. At least I missed it or its a side effect of the meds I was using at the time.lol Is this Tuesday?
Thank you, The home grower ( that's me) will see minimal differences and probably fk it up tweeking things that don't need tweeking.
Yeah it's kinda one and the same NPK ratios for cannabis needs in veg and flower vary minimally. Now switching to bloom nutes usually drastically lowers nitrogen levels. Thus changing NPK ratios. This leaves the plants often without enough stored nutrients to finish a healthy grow. So waiting until 3 weeks into flower is how you combat this.
Yes. I learned that you need N during flowering!
