Adding extra nitrogen in week 5 of flower

for the 1st 4 weeks i was adding the minimum amount , but i had excessive yellowing, so i upped to 3 ml per litre [ instead of 2 ] despite the yellowing slowing , ever so slighty , im thinking i should maybe up it again to 4 ml per litre ? the max dose.

Im using bio bizz nutes, bio grow, and bio bloom.

Has anyone got any thoughts ? is it wrong to up the veg nutes during flower ?

I use Luca's formula but noticed that my plants lost their fan leaves prematurely, so i added a bit of the green stuff. Now plants keep all fans till the day i harvest, so that definitely can be done with success:

i wont over do it, i was even considering adding some urine.

jumping from 2 to 3 ml was fine, so ill give it a 4ml per litre try out for one watering, then 3ml, then 4...

anyways, ive only got 3 maybe 4 more weeks to go, shes looking shit hot , and i guess i should expect some yellowing anyway.

meh, lol

Hehe, that's what it feels like. That pheno will grow single buds that are very dense with almost no leaf. It's really like picking apples when i harvest that (but it will take like 80 days to finish)

Thanks man, and the seaweed is full of nutrients, vitamins, minerals and hormones it feeds the microbes and such in your soil plus feeds your plant the best way i could explaine is for you to read up on my thread in the link below Molasses/Seaweed Tea it has lots of info myself an others gathered!! one thing i recommend is adding unsulfured molasses to your water, if your in the U.K its called something different i beleive there is a where to find Molasses in U.K thread here somewhere on RIU.. I will have a look for ya....

I found an old link not the one that i have seen recently but should help you some if your interested in trying it--->https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/39224-molasses-uk-where-buy.html

Is your avatar some ladies of yours? I've gotten to the beer bottle size thickness buds, but have not achieved the 40 oz bottle size buds. Do you veg longer? I'm guessing it has most to do with how big the root mass is able to grow. I'm in ~3 Gallon size pots. Whats your container size if u dont mind me asking?

Sweet man, yeah the seaweed is good if you live by the ocean, i also hear you can get the dried seaweed from grocery stores used for sushi and do it the same way!
