switch to flowering nutes and give a pk boost if u have it. I use Bud Blood from Advanced for 1 feeding once they throw pistils. AN PH perfect Connoisseur for blooming. Bud Candy and/or Carboload for carbs.(bigger, sweeter budzzz) Weeks 1-6/7 use your blooming fert and whatever extras, HALF STRENGTH to start, then MAYBE 3/4 strenth once theyre in full bloom. . flush with weak nutrient water week 7/8, then plain ph'd water for last week.
The weathers warmer now, watch out for MITES. Keep your temps under 82F for flowering. 76F is perfection.

Ya I do I use bloom blood and potash powder.
1 week before the switch I give 1 tbs of potash on top of medium so when I water all week they get some. First feed of the first 12/12 day they get 1/2 grm of bloom blood and 1/2 tsp of grow along with hygrozyme and bud candy. They will be getting 1 grm of bloom blood 1/2 tsp grow hygrozyme and bud candy. Week three I will be adding potash and and start blooming nutes and molasses. Does that sound like to many nute. I was under the impression that sugars ( molasses) should not be used till the end of the stretch or the grow period?

I have never used it in veg before. I will have to start. Bud candy is not even close to the same as molasses. All bud candy is is magnesium. I thought it was funny I bought it thinking the same thing but was surprised to find on the back it say magnesium!

Bud Candy has ; magnesium , Arabinose, Dextrose, Glucose, Maltose and Xylose from Raw Cane Extract, Malt Extract, Cranberry Extract and other premium carbohydrate sources. "sugar" basically .
The plant uses these, but mostly the BENEFICIAL SOIL BACTERIA eat the sugars, helping the roots grow big, and increasing their ability to absorb nutrients. extra resin and terpens in the finished buds.

Ok so I got a little update. It has been 2 weeks since the flip( seems like forever ago) and the ladies have stopped stretching at 26 inches. I'm hoping they are just taking a break but they have been pretty focused on bud development! Take a look

25 days old! Getting big!image.jpgimage.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg You can't see in the pic but they are already frosty as hell!


If the background looks different your right I had to move! It was definitely a sight to see! Anyway the whole garden got moved 4 in bloom and about 25-30 in the veg all ranging from seedling to 5 gallon giants! Not fun but the ladies didn't notice and keep on keeping on! I did notice that about 30 % of the pistol on both pants turned orange and receded in from the bag rubbing on them! but I don't think it caused them any stress!
