Just finishing up my FG. Things are looking ok, but I wondered what experienced people do in the last couple weeks to finish things off. ???

take a pic of your plants with miniture coke cans, lighters etc , dont dry it out err....

As above, the plants should gain some weight with flushing (not alot mind) more light = bigger buds (with propper care)

The last 2 - 4 weeks you can use liquid seaweed/kelp extract that will make
the buds as hard as rocks thus you get extra weight and for creating bigger bud size you can use H&G Shooting Powder from you local hydro store. It layers buds and builds buds on top of buds.

Nothing. Proper feeding and watering throughout the grow make the difference. In my experience none of the boosters or molasses or different light cycles make any difference.
Flushing = starvation. Avoid it.

Don't overfeed.

Buds are about as big as they'll be, but they are gaining density and resin.

Extra light can help IF you were lacking to begin.

Really there's no magical solution. ;)

They are actually looking pretty good. No flushing, albeit I water until I see bleeding. Feed is backed off a bit and holding steady. My 600 additional is currently rhetorical, but I wouldn't mind it...would rather a second light (or bigger one) produce the heat than the heater that is currently on. ...and yeah I was thinking the other day about buying a bunch of Fertilome 20/20/20 Geranium food and relabeling with some cartoon character riding a monster cola and double the price...regardless, you are still a wizard.

Your feed should be a 10-30-20 in later flower. 20-20-20 has too much ntrogen for late flower.
I actually use Fertilomes products as was suggested to me by the guy who got me going. Their flowering fert is 9-58-8 or something similar. The 20/20/20 was during veg. I then pulled back on the ferts come the 6th week of flower. Mentor's cookbook had me stopping ferts (short of CaMg+ with my RO water) all together but after doing some reading here I started them back up every other watering and at half the rate. I probably only have 2 more waterings until done.
