Hi
Was wondering when to switch over from vegetative fertilzer to the blooming stuff?
Do we wait for those little white hairs to appear or should it start beforehand?

Also I keep reading 'pre-flowers' but have no clue what they look like? Can someone maybe post a pic of them?

thanks in advance

I give veg nutes through the first week of flowering. After that it bloom nutes. So to answer your question, I start them the 2nd week of flowering.

gave em a 36 hour dark spell, then first watering in 12/12 had full strength veg and bloom (biobizz). havn't noticed any unwated side effects yet other than tricomes forming ;) so it must be doing something right :D

how do you give them 36 hour dark spell outdoors?

not sure if the 36 hour was a good or bad thing, just stretched em out a little bit, maybe useful, who knows :D

If you are forcing flowering outdoors, as I am, I find that setting an empty (clean, of course) plastic garbage container over them works pretty good to create a 12/12 light cycle. I put the garbage "can" over them at 7:30 pm and remove it at 7:30 am. Smaller plants, a cardboard box works.

Have you done this with success before? If so, I'm willing to attempt this trick.:bigjoint:
