I posted this in the Advanced section but could not figure out how to delete it or move from android app

.... i titled this the best i could sorry if it was misleading, so ive been attempting 12 12 from seed w bagseed and after my first attempt turning out to be two males i started researching ways to try and influence my next set to be females.. some of it seemed very factual and some just theorys but ether way what i took from it was more blue lighting early on, more N early into growth and be careful of too much phosphurus to early,

btw the last set couldve been destined to me males ether way but i used alot of nutes from the start never had a nute burn or any poblems they grew fast and strong but from what ive read too much too soon could turn them male

So this time around i used
MG moisture control soil (low npk rating)
MG Blood meal (12-0-0)

1 G pots with 1 tbsp blood meal

This must have worked or coincidence because i comfirmed females last night

my question now is i know they do not need that much nitrogen during flowering and the bag says it last two months and i know its time realeased they are about a month old ... so should i transplant to another pot without the bloodmeal now that ive determined sex or will it be ok to leave them and let the notrigen run its course for the next month.

also i have mg bloom booster that i want to start feeding at the right time from what ive read this needs to happen sometime in the middle of the flowring process and stopped a couple weeks before harvest so when can i start that ? sorry for the newbness i just started learning about nute regiments and ive googled till my eyes hurt

PLEASE DO NOT REPLY WITH MG IS CRAP I HAVE SEEN VERY MIXED REVIEWS SO I KNOW I COULD USE BETTER JUST CANT WITH THIS CROP

sorry if this is confusing super stoned ...like you

I run organic nutrients, and the plant uptakes them slower than synthetic nutes so feeding is different. Is blood meal soluble? (Does it dissolve in water). If so, then you could probably feed full strength once at the beginning of flower, and then maybe a second time in flower at half strength. With that high n rating I would be careful using it too late in flower.

You might also want to look into getting some bat guano for phosphorous when you are in flower. And I would also look for a source of potassium since the blood meal has none.

Another secret for growing fast healthy plants is using cal-mag in flower. It supplements calcium and magnesium and is soluble so it works quickly. A different option would be adding 1-2 teaspoons of dolomite lime (any store like Lowes should have a forty pound bag for like 3 dollars) per gallon of soil. It is NON soluble so prep the soil with it in the beginning, and then treat the top of the soil with it again at the beginning of flower. It will also help buffer the pH of your soil (it really helps balance the low pH of nutrients).

Other than that, I hope you are right about the female thing. If so then my conditions should Definitely help. Aside from that tho, don't x and y chromosomes determine plant sex? If so then you'd better hope those conditions can rearrange chromosomal alleles, BC otherwise there isn't shit you can do about making a male seed grow a female plant.

thanks for the reply, yeah I thought it was predetermined but I thought I would give it a try it was worth a shot after the first to turn mail like I said don't know if it was coincidence or if it worked
