whats the best way to transition to flowering? of course i want my girl as crazy as possible
Yea this is a question I am curious about. I have herd so many ways to DO it and NOT to do it. One guy tells me one thing then the other says no way.

I guess I'm asking whats the "rule of thumb" on this one?

I do...

1. 800-1000 ppm through veg with my "veg nutes" plus some vitamin B (Superthrive)
2. The last water before switching to 12/12, I do the first flower nute feeding but I make sure to BLAST them with a dose of high phosphorus bloom food as well to expose more bud sites (Monster Bloom by Grotek).
3. Then I do 24 hour dark before the 12/12 cycle.
4. Slowly start raising the ppm to 1500 with each other watering. You gotta read your plant.
5. Start adding sweet or molasses or sugar of some sort about 5th week in.
6. Flush when ready.

Continue at 1000 ppm and move it up from there.

If you transplant though, give the plant a week or maybe 2 to recover from shock and start from like 500 (half strength). Just watch your plant for signs of stress.
