Fertilizer switch?
TheSlimeGrowsanswered grow question 4 years ago
Yes, You should switch to a bloom specific fert with a higher Phosphorus percentage! this means the middle number on most fertilizers - EXAMPLE: 2-8-4 (N-P-K)
If you continue to use veg nutes then you can burn your plant and you won't pack on the big buds! happy growing!

DoDrugs420answered grow question 4 years ago
Well, do it progressively, reducing veg by 25% and starting at 25% the bloom, then 50%/50% untill you are at 100% bloom, after the 50% of each if the plant is not showing any problems then just go straight to 100% bloom.
More answers oughta be arriving since GOTM has restarted so by tomorrow there should be 3/5 answers already.

Hello community! I broke 2 branches this week. The first one happened by accident when I was draining the runoff, and the other when I was bending it.And today I came across a video where the author explains that silica can cause brittleness of branches. Does anyone have experience with silica and have you experienced anything like this? I add potassium silicate with each watering, at a concentration of 15ppm

How do stop or slow down coco coir pH from rising?I'm struggling to keep the pH of my coco coir/pumice mix from rising. I always use ph down to get nutrient going in at 5.5, and the run off water is always 6.5+, and leaves start yellowing/dying when pH reaches 6.8.
It doesn't swing, always up.
