High folks! A simple question, . Having put my timer to 12/12 today,the plants are well veged and covered with flower sites. When do I initiate adding a PK boost? Do I wait until I have flowers that are going to need help to grow fat buds or do I start earlier like as soon as the 12/12 is initiated or maybe when the flowers are starting to form. ??. Any advice welcome as always. It's why I use this site. Invaluable.

i would always wait for flowers before using a "booster" . others have different opinions. i believe some folks will tell you that hitting them with a boostrer early will cut the stretch out a lil bit but im against using a booster that early in the cycle. Hydro is slightly different as the medium is inert.

If you're using a PK booster exclusively, then start now at 1/4 strength and increase it over the duration of the grow.

If you're using it as a supplement like I'm assuming it is, the intended use is to extend the flowering cycle and should only be used in the last 4 weeks of flower.

I'm using ghe flora trio so I have some control over the grow and bloom nutes b4 getting onto the boosting. Thanks for the input, it's nice to hear the same as you suspect already eh..
