Switching to flowering nutrients (autoflower)

PoleKat

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to when I should start switching these critical purple autoflowers to flowering nutes? As I understand it should be a few weeks after preflowers start? Hard to tell when vertical growth slows when doing LST. This is my first grow ever!

Hi there, even with lst it should be good to see when the plants stopped stretching and start putting their effort into budding.. in most of my grows this is usually around day 10 (+/- a few days) after flowering kicked in.. and it doesn't have to be perfect either, it's just important that they still get their fair share of nitrogen in the beginning. I know people that use bloom nutrients during the whole lifecycle and their plants also survive (whether they are maximizing yield or whether i would recommend that is a different question, but they survive ;)) happy growing!

Do the most fertile lands in the world up and change their chemistry the last 10 weeks, magically? plants need all npk, secondary and trace elements throughout the entire life cycle. An optimal ratio at an optimal concentration is all you want.. .keep it simple and you won't run into the multitude of problems that plague most grows.

I'd suggest starting about two weeks into the flower. Keep your veg nutes going for the first week of flower. Check out my first grow for tips tricks and what not to do! Cheers and happy growing!
