OK. So I have plants vegging in foxfarm happy frog with no nutes about 30 days. Ready to switch to 12-12 and flower now. I am ready to start adding 1/4 strength nutes. Do I begin with the GROW nutes, even though I've started flowering and 12-12 light? Or do I start with the BLOOM nutes? Also if I am supposed to start with GROW nutes how do you know when to switch over to bloom nutes? Is it when you see actual flowers growing? Thanks.

use your grow nutes untill see start seeing hairs. then switch slowly upping P and K. in the last few weeks usually you will blast them with something high in P and K to encourage the last flower explosion

when you swith to bloom nutes do you start back at 1/4 strength and work your way up, even of you have made it up to full strength grow nutes?

i recommend using both grow and bloom at whatever strength you think they could handle so far. then about week 5/6 you up the bloom nutrients (this is for most hybrids of a typical 8 week strain). main thing to remember is to keep the leaves green and not overdo the nutrients.

Got it, keep it green and watch the plant.
