First Grow need some advice

So it's my first grow and both my girls are 6 + weeks old and because I'm planning to move in a month, month and a half, I wanna start flowering but don't really know how.

I have a DWC system and a 400 watt HPS bulb for flowering and BC bloom and boost. My nutes are at 550 + ppmz and I basically wanted to know how to switch over from veg to flower in a DWC system. Do I flush out the water in the system and make a new nute solution with the BC bloom and boost? And should I keep the ppmz at the same # as during veg or bring it up to 700 like suggested in the bottle?

Can any one spare some advice?

I have read people leave the nutrients in for a further 2 weeks after the switch and then change.
I have read people change the same time the switch the lights.
I have read heath robinson use a small amount of veg nutrients added to his flowering nutrients to prevent yellowing in flower.
hope that helps, im thinking of doing the second 2.
good luck!
Peace!

So I did the second method about 40 min ago and added the bloom & boost it measured 630ppm
but under veg it was last at 700 - 720ppm...
I also turned the light off and switched to a HPS which I be turning on in the morning.
I wasn't sure if I should make the ppm of the nute solution during flower equal to the ppm of the flower nute solution, or just wait till next feed to bring it up?

Any advice for my first grow would really be appreciated.

All you gotta do is switch to 12/12 light schedule.....you dont need to change out the nutes right now but you can if it makes you feel good?.

Well first off if you just changed the water and nutrients then wait till the next change to strengthen the ppm. See if there is a veg to flower transition nutrient schedule and use that. I use GH and they have all that info so maybe BC does on their wensite. Good luck.
