Transition Veg to Bloom Nutrients?

FNG Question: How do you know when to transition from veg nutrients to bloom nutrients? My outdoor autos have gained a lot of height over the past few weeks but I’m not sure what to look for. Most recent nutrients were FOOP V1 60mL / V2 60mL / Sweet 60mL

For MY autoflowers (and they're all I grow), I start feeding them bloom nutes from the get-go along with veg nutes... so for ME, the question is "when do I taper off the grow nutes and go solely with the bloom nutes" ... I start tapering off the grow nutes when they go into pre-flower (and boost the bloom nutes) which is usually Week 4 or 5 from germination ... then by week 2 of actual flower, I cut my grow nutes off completely and add additional bloom nutes that have just a touch of nitrogen in them... Hope this helps - good luck!

Not until there are small "budlets" or tufts of white pistils. Cannabis still needs adequate nitrogen in early flower.

You should start providing it as soon as the auto starts to stretch. Put of the many I grow I start about week 4 I introduce it and build on it. Then cut back nitrogen as she goes to bulk.

Hi there I do it similar to @growinggrannie, but I use veg nutes until about week 4 or 5, depending on how the preflower/early flowering looks then I switch to bloom nutes. I do think the way growinggrannie runs there's helps the autos hit the earlier harvest window where as my way seems to take a bit longer to get to harvest. Feel free to look through my recent/current soil grows as I have been quite detailed in what I do for a change.
