You will see a huge difference the last 3 weeks of flower. Its probably my fav time except for maybe around a month of curring. haha. As for the nutes, as long as youre not seeing any burnt tips on the leaves you should be fine. If you decide to add more just pay close attention to the leaves. They will tell you everything you need to know. If you question anything just post a pic and someone will let you know whats up. I personally dont add nutes til i start seeing deficiencies. The way i see is if everything is going good why complicate it. Do you have a pic of the red stems?

well the soil i have says feeds for six months but like i said in previous post i been adding nutes every time i water and nothing yet .......i can take a picture of the red stem as soon as my lights turn on it will be tomarrow by time i get it on here. its just a few leaf stems i have read that it can be a nutes problem lacking some nutes

What is the soil you are using? I suggest feeding every other water or not at all if your soil has nutes added. Less is more. Throwing chemicals at them will lead to problems. They will only use what they will use. The rest will build up in the soil and eventually cause issues.

it could be N def or P def. buds will get bigger after 30 days if all was well. red stems could also be strain dependent...like romulan for example. as long as everything is progressing i wouldnt worry too much.

It could also be lockout - how big are the pots and how long have they been in them? When the pH buffer is depleted the soil loses the ability to maintain a constant pH at which point the roots can't uptake nutrients.

it very well could be...even from too many nutes.
