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.

Will fertilizer mixture deteriorate over time if mixed in advance?
I was previously having an issue where if i adjusted ph in water i have stored that the ph would slowly climb after a couple days. Im just curious if i premix jugs of fertilizer and then adjust ph before watering if the fertilizer will deteriorate/weaken over time? One week max

best methods to start with fertilization
advice on how to start fertilizing? I read on some blogs that it’s better to water first with demineralized water and then give some with fertilizers, and on other blogs I also read the opposite (first the water with fertilizers and then the demineralized one). opinions? 🤔

Water and nutrients
I water every other day. So far I have been using nutrients to bring my water up to the proper EC (ppm). It is always a VERY small amount (1/2 tsp). I haven't noticed any signs of toxicity but I wanted to hear your opinion of my approach and changes that I could/should make

Nute schedule question
I would like to know the best approach regarding nutes at this point (see picture). Last mix I did I mixed [Coco A (8-0-0) : Coco B (0-6-12)] at a ratio of [1 : 1.4]. Was this a good approach at this stage? Should I still give more N and be at 1:1.2 for more stretch?

Fert Switch Veg/Flower Timing
When and how do you switch from Canna Vega to Canna Flores? Feel free to share any tips. What are your "signals"? Do you suggest a hard switch like in the Canna schedule, or do you prefer transitioning by mixing the fertilizers? If you need more info, please check the diary.

Which week is flower week
To my understanding, you don't begin counting the weeks of flower until the first sight of pistils correct? The transition week is counted as a veg week?
