In week 6, I’m growing autos in Fox Farms Ocean Forest. I’m going to gently work in some Fox Farms Strawberry Fields as the plants begin to flower. What is the best approach to adding additional nutrients at this point? Especially to support flower.

All I use is FFOF I add some flowering dry amendments at around the 30 day mark for autos. Gives it the 2 weeks to cook in the soil if your using liquid start with less since it hits the roots right away

Yes, this is the perfect time to start giving nutrients. The soil got enough nutrients for about 6 weeks. You need to give a blooming nutrient with a higher ratio on phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). You can start giving a bloom basic nutrient. This contains all the nutrients necessary for during flowering. And you can give a PK product like PK-Booster or PK 13/14 Always start with small steps. Around 25% from the adviced amount by the fertilizer company. You can always add more but can not get it out once given. And always up with 25% or down with 25% Plants do not like huge changes thats why the small steps. Enjoy your grow!

Flowering needs additional potassium and phosphorus... one good way to add at least the K is to sprinkle about a tablespoon of Langbeinite on top of the soil and it will water in slowly... it has an NPK of 0-0-22 so it will really target the buds, making them larger and more dense.... Good luck!
