The pic's a bit fuzzy, but it looks like it! :D The hairs almost look like white pairs of antenna when they come in, though the first are sometimes just a single hair poking out of the little calyx

That nute is good for flowering especially if your on a low budget :) If you still have the receipt I would exchange it for Schultz Orchid its much stronger but I heard the results are better.

Whoa make sure it's organic!
Nonedible plants like orchids and violets can eat anything they want, it won't affect humans.
But you are about to smoke/eat this plant you're feeding, you don't want to eat some wierd shit.

Just saying be careful, I don't know anything about the fert specifically.

Is she still vegging?
A lot of growers start feeding bloom nutes a week before flower.

My honest advice would be to feed her veg nutes until a week before you flower, and then mix half bloom half veg nutes for a week before you flower.
Then switch to bloom nutes and change lights to 12/12.

If she's vegging you want like 4/5 lights to be 6500k for most strains.
If she's flowering you want to do the same thing with 2700k's, with just a couple 6500k's to promote density.

Oh and another thing I remember about flowering,
a lot of people feed her veg nutes for the first couple weeks of flower, during the early stretch phase.
And then switch to flower after the stretch.

But as you can see there's a hundred different methods, it all boils down to personal choice.

Oh and she's looking beautiful.

I have noticed that the first two sets of leafs turn yellow and die either way they are there to start the plant then die because they have done their job? Looking awesome by the way

she's in flowering state now i changed my final lights to 6x23watt 2700k..i feed her the African Violet nute every other day and so far she's not complaining very much although couple tips burn, light schedule is 20/4 all the way :-P
