Just switched over to 12/12

Hey guys, I just switched over to 12/12 and had a couple questions about what I should be feeding.

They are a little over 4 weeks old, just put them into 12/12 yesterday to see how I do on my first harvest.

I had them in MG Potting (0.14-0.14-0.14) for about 2 weeks until I saw some burning so I got rid of the MG and didnt add any nutes until their final transplant into 5 gallon buckets yesterday.

In the mix in the bucket I had Sunshine Mix #4, about 1tsp of lime per gallon, some organic blood meal (12-0-0) and some organic bone meal (?-8-0).

I also have a liquid organic bloom food (organic bone meal 0-6-0) that I have not added at all yet.

Lights are a 250W HPS, and a 400W MH (all I have available right now). Temps stay below 30C with the lights on.

My question is, will the plants be able to use the blood and bone meal in the soil right away as it needs it (breakdown time?) or should I be supplementing them with something else, and when should I be starting to feed the liquid bloom food I have?

Thanks in advance.
