technically you can switch to 12/12 after 3 days of topping, but your gonna yield alittle less caz your plant hasnt healed 100% if u can wait another 5 days to a week u should, but if u cant wait then u can still switch to 12/12 its just not your best option

thanks 4 ur advice ill switch to 12/12 on the weekend. im also looking for a flowering nute. UK only plz i cant afford to buy over seas so something really cheap would be great. Im currently using chempak formula 20-20-20.
should i carry on using chempak formula 20-20-20 all the way untill the end or should i switch?
if i do stay and use 20-20-20 nute all the way through flowering what would the bud result be like?
has any 1 done this b4 if yes what was your experience.

I order on eBay in the UK Bio Bloom. Its reasonable priced and lasts long time if you get a 1litre bottle is not the 500ml good aswell. Its only 5ml to a litre of water so yeah lasts awhile.

Try not to trim any of the leafs off. Will cause more stress to the plant then any thing.

yeah he's right u shouldnt do any trimming but if u do then leave it another week to start flower, but also keep in mind that your plants will atleast double in size from when u switch them into flowering until there finished

it all depends on the strain, how long the strain takes to finish etc, bud u will start to see buds in 2 to 3 weeks i guess
