    COCO COIR Question re nutes when switching to flower

    Hey all,

    Just wondering how everyone approaches their feeding schedule when moving from veg to flowering.

    On my first grow I just switched straight from veg to bloom nutrients the day I went to 12/12, but I was thinking it might be better to combine the two during the transition (until pistils appear maybe?) so the plant still has some veg nutes to power the stretch.
    Makes sense in my head, or am I just overthinking it? (I have a tendency to analyse sometimes unnecessary things haha)
    2.5x2.5x6' tent
    2x 55w COB veg, 400w HPS flower
    Coco/perlite with mycorrhizal mix in fabric bags
    2-part base nutes + veg/bloom boosts, bud boost, calmag
    Carbon filter/exhaust, 6" oscillating fan, usb static fan
    Gear and controllers for heat/humitidy used as needed

    Strain unknown

      I always continue feeding abit of N throughout flower. Having said that i do swith over to bloom nutes which i use sparingly but that's just me once i see tiny budlets form on the tips. I tend to let the plant canabalize itself use it's stored energy until i see it could use some outside help with teas. You must gather info and test yourself an plants as EVERYONE is not the same when timing and using boosters. But read and watch you'll figure it out don't let others get into your head.

        I just use (Fox Farms) Big Bloom and Grow Big for the 1st 8 weeks, every other watering. Then transition week I use the previous PLUS I add Tiger Bloom and 1/4 tsp of Open Sesame. After that in flower I just use Big Bloom, throw in 1 tsp of Grow Big only twice in between watering with Big Bloom AND Open Sesame. Then from there I only use Beastie Bloomz for 3 feedings, then Cha Ching just before harvest. Never had any issues.

          When I was new and guessing my way through it, I discovered the GWE nutrient guide like alltatup said. It put me back on track, use it.
          Don't worry, be happy, grow sticky buds.
