Growth or Flower Nutrients?
Lamar_Vannoystarted grow question 4y ago
This plant has started to flower. At this early stage should keep using growth nutrients for a couple of weeks, or switch to flowering nutrients? I've been very light on feeding it at the moment, which doesn't seem to be doing it any harm.
I'd like to keep using the Rhizotonic.

Flowering nutrients bro. Best to add PK boost to get the most out of pre flower as its started their is no stopping her.
She'll stretch during pre F.
Good luck brother.

you can start adding small doses of flower nutrients while slowly dialing down the grow nutes over the course of a couple of weeks. plants use huge amounts of N during stretch and first quarter of the flowering period. you need nitrogen to sustain that leaf and stalk growth more than P.

A question for the bag growers. I was underwatering and too often so started watering until getting some runoff. A problem I have is that before the water flows out the bottom it starts leaking from along the sides. making it difficult to judge how much is actually runoff.Feeding. Other

runoff PPM extremely high.So, I am using tap water and its ppm is between 300-400. However I just checked by runoff water PPM and it came over 2500 with ph around 6. I have not used any fertilizer whatsoever and the soil is BioBizz Ligth Mix. What could be causing this issue?Other. Other

Are we Twins? would we make a good couple? who are we lol?Essentially is the same nutrient correct? From my understanding, a PK booster is usually thrown in the middle of the flower cycle for about 2 - 3 wks. I've also noticed it rarely cut out. Can/would you mix the product lines? what weight differences have you seen with use?Buds. Other

Runoff PPM's are higher and Ph numbers are lower than what I've been adding when I water-When I watered each of the plants with Ph balanced water only the runoffs for each plant were about 30% higher ppm than I put in on the previous watering with nutes (see numbers above). The plants look very healthy. Should I be concerned with this and if so why?Week 9
