Read more. You don't stop giving your plant nitrogen at the end of veg. And if you are only using nitrogen you need a lot more.

You need to continue to feed your plants nutrients for all of flowering. That includes some nitrogen. If you're not using a 3-part nutrient solution (any of the basic ones) you should get one and feed at about 1/3 of the recommended schedule on the label. If you have a ppm meter, you can be more exact than that, but I found that 1/3 strength gave me great results -- superb growth and no deficiencies or burning.

Good luck!

You definitely want nitrogen through the stretch. They burn a lot of energy during this period and need food. If you arent giving them nitrogen they will suck it all right out of your pretty green leaves. You will be left with a bright yellow bush.

6-4-4 and switching to 2-8-4 now in flowering
I would recommend sticking with your 6-4-4 for another 2 weeks (through the stretch), in flowering.
You still might want to hit it with the 6-4-4 every few feedings after that.
