2 Weeks into flowering, KoolBloom,Diamond Nectar question.

Im about 2 weeks into flowering (I'll post pictures if they're needed to judge my question) and Im not really sure when to start adding the KB and DN. I've read the bottles and I know that you add them to your usual nute-soup, but it DN doesnt clarify when to start using it. Now, Im sure since Im flowering I add it with my flowering nute-soup, like I just stated lol, but I just want to make sure.

Also, About KoolBloom; The directions read "KoolBLoom should be used during the last 2 or 3 weeks of flowering to enhance harvest quality and yeild. Discontinue KoolBloom 3-5 before harvest."
BUUUT I've read you're going to want to flush towards the last couple of weeks before harvesting.
Could someone shed some light on this gray area I'm having.

I REALLY appreciate it.
+Rep also because you deserve it.kiss-ass

Anything at all?

use the kool bloom a few weeks before you start flushing, also since you seem interested in getting the most for your effort try to purposefully stress your plants in the last couple of weeks, by poking the main stem with a thumb tack or keeping in in complete darkness for a few days, this increases thc production.

you want to flush 2 weeks prior using any fertilizer, you don't want your buds tasting like it.

Thanks, and do you know anything about DN?, Like when I should start using it? Also, are you serious about poking my plants? I dont want to stress them..Unless what you said really works. Sorry, This is my first Hydro grow, Second grow ever.
They're all three females, I dont want to hermie them.

Gotcha. Thanks

well yes you see when the plant is stressed especially in true sinsemillia its well desperate to say the least to get some pollen to procreate, so it responds to stress by increasing thc, since thc has two functions for the plant A: sunblock and B: sticky pollen trap , the uv supplementing and forced stress while usually disregarded as bs logically have there place in a grow operation.
and dont worry about hermies since you do this a week to a few days before harvest, you dont have to poke the either you can water them with really cold water or smack em around a bit or just plain leave them in the dark the last three of four days.







whats dn?

you can start using koolbloom after 2 weeks of flowering, not including trans time. you can use koolbloom until the last week, even though it says 3-5 days before harvest. and i wouldnt poke my plants, but to each his own right!

Diamond Nectar, It doesnt say when to start using it.
I'll try your poking method on a single plant.

I've used Koolbloom liquid and dry for many grows in DWC 5 gallon buckets. I've never flushed and just gave it a good cure after harvest. You should use the liquid too, it really helped the buds develop in early flower. Used liquid from start of 12/12 and switched to dry on the last 3 weeks. Got good results and I never flush. A good cure is all you need and the smoke is really smooth and taste is good. I keep my plants fed until the end. Everyone has their own way so it's your choice. Some flush and some don't but you never know until you try both ways. Also in DWC a 3 day flush is all you really need. 1-2 weeks is overkill. Now I use House and Garden's Aqua Flakes and all their additives. One of the additives is called drip clean I don't even have to cure and the smoke and taste is good.
