My plants are looking good but they seem to be really light in green, not very dark. i was thinking they may not be getting enough nitrogen. so i was wondering how do you achieve a 15-5-5 or something along those lines? right now my bloom would be like 7-5-3 if i were to add my bottle up, i use general organics and i cant seem to find anything with more nitrogen so should i just double up on my mix for nitrogen? same with veg how it should be 5-15-15 my P and K levels are not even close to that. im kinda confused i was told nitrogen is needed more in flower not veg but i guess im wrong? someone shed some light on this, lol how can i achieve the best NPK?

I got confused but even adding 3/4 like i did it still wouldnt reach 15% nitrogen. and im seeing nitrogen is mainly for veg not bloom.

I have told you, your not going to want just read everything you see on the internet. You want to read your plants and right now their telling you they need nitrogen, at least from what you have explained.

you should be using a nute that has a specific ratio for veg, and one for flower. i usually just use a one part for veg, (pure blend pro.) and then switch to a 2 part for flower.

Me,I wouldn't worry about this shit at this stage. It's the bud you need to concern yourself when the time comes. I see lots of posts regarding problems with leaves, they're turning color or they have spots on them. If you have good soil, good nutes and good lighting everything will work out. I've had dark green leaves light green leaves leaves with spots and leaves that were falling offl, but I've always had good bud. Don't overthink growing. It's not that complicated. Just make sure you adjust your ph when watering and feeding.
