No, not yet. Wait another 2-3 weeks or until there are small "budlets" forming first. Cannabis still needs adequate nitrogen in early flower and switching to "bloom" nutrients too early will cause issues later in in flowering.

Has my bigger girl already a deficiency?
The new growth on my left plant looks a bit pale. In my feeding shedule i am only in week 2 and i thought ~500 ppm is mid-range for that early phase.

Reducing PPM without changing water in hydro
Thanks all for guidance on my previous question. As a follow up, can PPM be lowered by reducing feeding until they hit the right range? Currently 1500ppm but seems this is too high. Currently following the AdvancedNutrients plan.

Hi guys. Considering the several problems of this grow, how I can change my setup for the next grows? Now I'm using Plagron Alga fertilizers and the Promix substrate (no fertilized). Do you suggest to set the lamp in bloom mode (more reds) also during the veg phase? Thanks, M

GHE Waterfarm - pump timing
Hi all! I am using Waterfarm from GHE and I have set it up so the pump goes on and off at same time with the lights. Is this timing OK or is it better to just run the pump 24/7? I have no experience in hydroponic yet.

Opinions on progress
So this is my first solo grow in a completely new setup (previously only grown in collaboration with a friend). Started off with a cheap blurple light. Very slow start then upgraded to a mars hydro TS1000 2 weeks prior to flowering. Topped at 35 days How is she looking?

Confused with light schedules for outdoor growing
Hi fellow growers, I'm really confused with light schedules for outdoor growing. Everywhere I see 18/6 for veg and 12/12 for flowering. However at my place I get ~13hours of daylight (not always sunlight) Would my plants get into flowering if daylight is reduced to ~11 hours?
