Nitrogen during Flower

[GoldenGoblin]

Wondering about Nitrogen during flower.
The plant needs more during initial phase of flowering, but less as time moves on.

Is there a concensus as to when to cut back, something you can look for? You can't cut it out completely, or can you?

This is just a brain bounce thread I think.

I stop all added nitrogen a week before I shift to 12/12 lighting period ... when I grew out a Willie Nelson (14 weeks in flower). I did add a WEAK dose midway thru, just because it dragged on forever ... Willie didn't like it, burned ... :wtf:

yea, depending on the strain, you can use regular veg food for the first 2-3 weeks, but after that it can hinder growth. i usually switch to bloom formula after little clusters start to form @the top of the plant...
hope this helps!
Peace!

I really keep liquid-delivered N out of my bloom ferts PERIOD.
The closest I will come is mixing in about a teaspoon fish emulsion per gallon of compost mix for the repot I do about 2 weeks into flower. Mix that up THOROUGHLY. The roots will get that little N boost as they reach it. And the N in fish emulsion is easy enough to flush out of the soil if you see signs of burn.

If you are one of the folks who use CalMag you have plenty of N for flowering.

I have a fertilizer called 'Hawaiian Bud & Bloom' 5-50-17 with chelated micronutrients. Would this be useful Stinkyattic? TX

[Dr. Bloor]

I have been having a happy time running some fertilizer experiments during flowering. After a week I have cut out the one with the most nitrogen. Obviously not doing the trick. Got a little burn on one plant. Flushing tomorrow.

So I flushed the plants and now one has some interesting twists to some leaves?

[Dr. Bloor]

What is this anyway?

[Dr. Bloor]

Otherwise the plant is so healthy. I have another post about it in Basic. Thanks
