Used General hydroponics Ripen too early

General hydroponics Ripen. Instructions are to use the last two weeks of flower. I thought I had two weeks. It’s looking like two more weeks. Should I stop using it or just run it for four weeks?

Ingredients: Ammonium Phosphate, Magnesium Sulfate, Monopotassium Phosphate, Potassium Chloride, Seaweed (Ascophyllum nodosum), Soft Rock Phosphate And a .5-7-6 NPK. These are run-of-the-mill ingredients. They are "commodities." That means they are the same everywhere and of no quality difference. It's also been proven that this idea that P and K are for flower is total nonsense. Several studies show that amping either up beryond a basic threshold has no effect on yield or potency. Some people are throwing 2x as much K at a plant as necessary and just pissing it down the drain. I've used P anywhere from 40-70 and K 170-210 and if i go higher i get tox buildup in plant (slowly) and if i go much below i get deficiencies... there's no 'amp up for big buds' level, lol, there's just a level tha tkeeps the plant happy and not toxic or deficient.

it's just fertilizer or enzymes or microbes.. there's no magical "ripener", just marketing nonsense. so as long as it isn't overdosing something, all is fine and no negative effects.
