Putting ladies into Flower

[Dooby420]

Well 6 weeks into the gro and I got 5 ladies :D

The preflowers have turned into small leaves coming out, are these the internodes i am looking for?

Tonight I will start 12/12 under a 400w HPS.

Another concern is, should I stick with my nutes I am using now at full dose (Schultz Liquid Plant food 10-15-10) or use a 1/4-1/2 dose of Miracle gro (15-30-15) I figure it would be better since I want more phosphour in the mix for floweirng?

Thanks all! 2thumbs

Update - I found 2 diff types of flowering fert:

One is some Miracle Gro bloom booster 10-52-10

another is Peters super bloom booster food that is 10-50-10

I am scared of using MG so it should be ok to start out w/ a half dose of peters?

Right now I am using full dose Schultz liquid food 10-15-10 I figured I need something with more P for flowering

say dooby,

could be wrong here but the 10-50-10 is more of a mid flower thing to give em a boost like..... but i have been mess'n around with beastie bloomz 0-50-30 :eek:

says it can be used strait thru flower if used at a lighter dose or you can really pound it to it for 2 weeks mid flower....

basicly for veg we want a 3-2-1 ratio and for flower a 1-2-3 ratio.... just a starting point like ....

could be wrong here as well but think those 2 nutes are made by the same peeps and are about the same.....

just start out with a light dose and work ya way up with the 10-50-10 and keep an eye out for leaf tip curl

grow on

You don't need to feed them any more N go with a 16/15 pk or something like that. get into your boosters a lil later.

bit of N works a wonder first couple weeks of flower no?

For my flowering I use a 1-2-3 agumented with a 0-50-30 called monster bloom.

Hey CB what do you use for flushing? I was given a tip the other day to use distiled water, I have just been using filtered water in the past.

Seems to me they are loving this Schultz 10-15-10

Any tips on mixing some of this food with the Peters 10-50-10 bloom booster?

Helpful or fried ladies?

What is this "a n b" you speak of?

Hey Doobie, haven't heard anything on your grow in a while, wasup? I use Peter's 20-20-20 during veg and then after 2 weeks into bloom I start hitting with Peter's 10-50-10. Gorilla and some others swear by the Beastie Bloom. I think I'll try it out on 1/2 my White Widow grow and compare the results.
