swapping from grow to bloom nutrients? - Page 2

I also give my plants veg nutes the first 2-3 weeks of flower to cover the new growth. This is in soil FYI.

after some reading on RIU i'm getting tempted to give them a flush, like making it 'fresh start' for flowering by cleaning residues of grow nutr. that may be in soil

will i gain anything good with it (in my case, that don't seem to be having any over nut problems) or is it unnecessary ?

cheers

but shamegame do you ADD them together (the grow. nut and the blossom nut) or just give the grow n. for the 1+2weeks and then you change to flowering nut (one at the time)

thanks

I give them veg nutes only for the first 2-3 weeks. Then I switch to only bloom nutes You do not have to go 3 weeks, I have just done that with some sativas that had a total flowering time of more than 10 weeks

I see no reason to flush the veg nutes from your pots before switching to bloom nutes. You could if you want, it wouldn't hurt anything, but there is no reason to really aside from salt buildup. And it's probably not an issue for you.
