Good day all, I am about to start week 2 of flower tomorrow and in seeing some white pistils to slowly start coming out. I've been told to not start tiger bloom until the pistils are forming would this be a good time to start a qtr to half dose as I know it's very harsh and can burn them very easily. Please see pic to see where I am at any advice is much appreciated, I've been using some grow big and big bloom since the flip.

I run 6 of the 9 suggested FF feeding. I do not use the Kangaroots the sledgehammer or the micro brew. These are a waste imo. Using Kanaga roots and micro brew is only forcing more nuts into the plant that you then need to buy slegdhammer to knock out so you don't get salt buildup. If you want a BIO use greatwhite it has better stuff in it and no extra crap you need to buy a flusher to get read off.
So anyway. I start tiger bloom the first day I put them into bud and run it until your at about the point in budding your plants are at then swap to open seasame for 2-2.5 weeks then I start Beastie Bloom running both the In that 2.5 week point. Then the same with beasties and cha ching.

Ok here is my start to finish FF feeding.
Grow Big IE Worm castings. How much to use and when? Read your soil.
If you use FF Oceans forsest this stuff is loaded with all the goodies
your babies need to get massive roots so I will Use grow Big 1 Tsp per
Gallon of water 1 time per pot trasplant. I use a 4 staging potting system
With a cloner going to a 16oz cup then a 1gallon pot and then 3 gallon to
Finish So I hitting them 3 times with Grow Big over the corse of 6 weeks of
Veg.
Big Bloom AKA Green juice. I feed this 1 Tsp per gallon of water every 7 days
while every 4 days I hit with pure water. I do this for the last 2 weeks of my 6 week
Veg.
Tiger Bloom AKA Bud Builder. The second I go to 12/12 I stop Big bloom and start tiger
I feed the same amount and the same times as Big bloom. IE 1 Tsp per gallon of water
once every 7 days and every 4 days pure water. Normaly 2-3 week from the start of 12/12.
Once I clearly see bud I stop Tiger Bloom. I then change open seasame. This is used
as the small side of the scooper per 1 gallon of water feed 1 time every 7 days then
pure water every 4 days. This will run for about 2-3 weeks from the point you see and
can say yesa that will be a bud untill you can clearly see you nodes You will be about 5
weeks into bugging when you stop Open seasme and stat beasties bloom
From this point I run beast bloom for another 2-3weeks depending on how long Open was run for
IE check your flowering time is it an 8,9,10,12 week finish. Once I pull out the 60x and check
tich I look for about 25% to show some cloud and then I stop Beastie and run chaching
ChaChing AKA your harderner or finisher. The amount is the same one small side scoop per 1
gallon of water. You will run this from about week 6 threw finsih and do one massive flush
Before harvest Not weeks before. Days before. You will run chaching till you see your first signs
of amber Tich. I am not taking 10% 25% or more I mean the first 1 you see. You hit cha ching wait
4 days flush wait 1 day pick.
Remember you might think its a good idea to try and pump as much feed into your plants as you can.
And for the most part your plants can take it and will. The problem is can your grow Medium? Can it
keep the salt that builds up with all these feeds away from your plants roots and if it does that
then all your doing is wasting food. Read your feeds you will see if you feed the suggested way
you will be doubling up alot of the same stuff and then be forced to add stuff other then water to
flush it out. IMO its better to feed less and not have to flush then pumping in feeds and risk salt
build up and force massive flushing that not really needed.
Be aware this is only for soil grows. Please do not try and use these feeds for aero or hydro sets.

Thanks man I appreciate the information. I've been goin light on my feeds and diluting them down so far except my thai loves some nitrogen gonna have to give her a little extra for a bit more. But once the stretch is over I'm gonna start some tiger bloom and big bloom, and molasses week 4-5 and hope I can not burn them up cause I'm gonna go with a 3 week flush.
