i hope i did not ruin my latest research project. i was out of town and had a baysitter this is what was bought and used...now i left instructions and plenty of cash...i just did not have time to run to the store so this is what was bought and used greenlight superbloom 11-55-6 it was used half strength 3 days ago in soil 8 days into flower...i cant see any probs so far just seems real high in the phos. plus it is not organic i am pissed about that!! i have noticed a strong skunky smell i do have preflowers but this is all normal for the plants age and life cycle so what do you think

You should be fine. I've used stuff that strong on my girlies from the same line before, and for longer, and at full dilution.
So you ended up with like 5-27-3... next time boost up the last number to like 5 or more and get the middle one down a smidge, like 15-20, and I think a rule of thumb for Nitrogen is no more than half what you were using in veg. I mean, seriously, diff strains are diff feeders so if you play proportions... like if you could give them N=10 in veg and not burn them you didn't do a bit of damage with the 5.
Sounds like the sitter bought bulb bloom food, lol!

You can add a little...you said in the other thread you add organics to the dirt... so do I so they don't show def until 2 weeks or less to harvest. The fish poop is great for that.
