Hey RIU community. First time posting here although I have come across the site many times while hunting for info. I've done a few outdoor grows, but this is my first indoor grow - I'm 70-days in from seed - on 18-6 light.
My grow area is 4'x3' containing two plants. Seeds are an unknown strain I got in some bud I had while in Oaxaca, Mexico.
For lighting, I'm running 2 "150w" full-spec leds (with one more arriving tomorrow to get a little extra boost during flower). brand is Niello (on Amazon dot ca - I can't post links since this is my first thread
)Plus four 13w ("75w equivalent") full-spec led bulbs from Home Depot, brand is Feit.
I have a 10" 12v fan pushing air in and a fairly powerful exhaust fan (repurposed from a stove hood I cut apart) pulling air out.
I'm using 20gallon fabric pots with Gaia Green Living Soil Blend.
I topped the plants when they hit 5 nodes and have been using the Scrog method. I lolipopped them a few days ago in prep for flip.
Throughout veg I've been using Terra Vega by Canna - 1 part fertilizer (3-1-3).
Now that you have an idea of what I've done to this point, I'm hoping I can get some advice prior to flipping (hoping to do so in the next few days).
What I have on hand; a friend gifted me a bottle of Advanced Nutrients Big Bud (0-1-3). I've read that I don't want to use that until 2-3 weeks into flowering. I also have a container of Gaia Green Power Bloom (2-8-4) top dressing sitting around from a previous outdoor grow.
I'm working on a tight budget and hoping to not spend too much more on this grow. im wondering if I can use the Power Bloom top dressing (if so when would I apply it) prior to the Big Bud or if there would be any sort of conflict there? Ideally I'd like to make use of what I have, rather than dropping more $$. IF I were to spend another $20-30 on another bloom nutrient - what would be the best bang for my buck?
Thanks in advance!
