Yes, plants still need good amounts of nitrogen during the first 2-3 weeks of flowering.
It is a common mistake to switch to bloom as soon as there are only a few pistils in my opinion/experience.
I always continue with "grow" for the first 2 weeks of flowering, before changing to half "grow" and half "bloom" for the next10-14 days, before finally switching to straight "bloom" for the final phase through to finish. I also start with a P/K booster around week 2 as well.
I have done this for 30+ years and believe it produces the best results for me..........organics in soil.
