Go light and use the liquid version. This stuff will burn a hole through diamond, so dilute it well before adding to reservoir or it will precipitate you nutes. Use half strength. This will spike a 5 gallon bucket near 8 or higher at 2 ml/gal.

When do you stop giving nutrients?
Pictures taken 3 weeks into flowering. Its 3.5 weeks now. Started as pretty basic potting soil, most of the nutrients im sure are gone. When do you switch to just pH corrected water to feed? Thinking 1 more week for my yellowing plants, and less for my very green one. Thoughts?

Already time to give PK?
I've heard that adding PK too early can actually hinder the development of the buds, and that you should only start using it once the buds have already started to put on some size. At this stage, is it already okay to start giving PK?
