flowering period and nutrients

I was just wondering if anyone changed their feeding routine during flowering time. Im feeding my plant now in a nutes/water/nutes/water schedule and was considering doing nutes only till the harvest flush.

In my experience I keep it the same to avoid burn from over abundance of nutrients and salts. Sometimes ill feed twice in a row but never all the way through its a waste of nutrients and could cause havoc on your crop

^^ yeah plain water is good every other.
you can really push it like week 5-6 then back down week 7
i get er done that way.

I only ask cause some of my fan leaves are starting to yellow out and shrivel. I know that it is just he plant sucking the nitrogen out of the leaves, but only on my 5 week flowering so I thought about maybe doing a double feeding.

its a normal beginner mistake to cut the Nitrogen/Veg nuts when entering 12/12 or early on in flowering ..

in my experiance they will yellow early on/to much if you do that, I keep feeding it Veg nuts the fist 2 weeks or so of flowering (flowering .. not 12/12)

after the stretch (fist 2-3 weeks of flowering) it won't need much Nitrogen, but I still feed it a little (maybe 1-5-3)

in week 3-7 (with mostly Indica dominate) it will need most P and some K when I grow in SS (super soil) I like to mix some high P Bat guano in my flowering soil mix, when I grow in coco I use the "Lucas Fomular"

a good thing to add in late flowering when growing in soil is Black Strap Molasses (do some research) provide both carps for your soil`s micro life and P/K and trace elements for your plant and the most importent thing beside NPK .. Magnesium that and calcium (might also want to look in to stuff like Epsom salt for that and Dolomit lime)

sorry Im stoned and blabering on

hope some of it is usefull ?

Im only using the gh flora series and nothing else. Ive been afraid to use anything else cause i dont want any lockout either. Will molasses keep the yellowing at bay?

thats easy, that I have experience with as I have both use them in soil and now at this moment use it in coco (using the Lucas Formula)

look it up..

in coco I use Epsom Salt (English salt/Magnesium sulfate) beside the micro and bloom, half a Ts. per gallon of water, Deluded in a cup of boiling water fist, then added to the Can then I add the Micro/bloom ..

if you have the Molasse at hand or can buy it local, do it, its cheap and will help with trace elements and more or less do the same as Epsom salt and more, will also help a old soil late in flowering, I use it up to the end, in between nuts so its nuts, molasses, nuts molasses aso aso (or like once a week and nuts once a week in case you have to water more often ?)

I use a Ts. per gallon, agin as its sticky as hell, delude it in a cup of boiling water before you add it to your water Can I also use it last week when I cut the nuts ..

I keep it the same. But doing pure nutes could have negative effects on your plants, if your plants can take it then why not? But i wouldnt like to attempt to find out. GW

Thanks for all the great info guys, I'll stay on the water/nutes/water/nutes regimen but next watering ill mix a little molasses in there and give it a shot with that.
