Some questions, growing, nutes, flowing... Need advice

[TheMetal1]

How's it going all?

It's going good :jointsmile:

Question #2: Considering the size of the planting pots should i start to flower the plants at the 1st sign of pre-flowers?

Since available grow space is a major factor in finishing indoor plants... make sure you will have room for stretching at the beginning of the flowering stage. Certain strains can grow 2-3x larger during budding. But you can always tie them up if you need to. How big is your grow space? What are your lights also?

Question #3-4-5 (This is where I cannot find a precise answer or a "how-to"):
-If i do decide to start the flowering stage, how should I start this process? I have found many different ways. Please tell me the best way (or your way) to initiate this process: (give your opinion of the following list on a scale of "good" or "bad" or "yes" or "no")
A. Keep plants in complete darkness for 24hours then move to 12/12?
B. Immediate use of one or both of the flowering nutes (stated above) to start the flower stage? which?
C. Do i add full strength on the 1st day of flowering? (Please add comments of flowering nutes and how much(%) and/or when to administer.)

That is going to be a preference thing I'd imagine. Certain strains will probably fair better with different ratios, schedules, etc. Especially dependant on the climate and weather of its origin.

Warning: Seems like a jack, but just trying to give personal experience. :stoned:
I had some "possible" M39 seeds and they were showing lots of preflowers during 24/0. I flushed and then threw them on 12/12. Within about 2 days I had first signs of bud growth without having given any bloom nutes. Once the soil was dry enough to feed... I started full strength FF Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom. SHIT REALLY TOOK OFF!!! Again it will mainly be strain specific as to how much and what to use. I think I can get away with loading the full dose of nutrients to these because they came from some Beasters. Pretty notorious for getting the chems slammed to them.

Question #6
-How do i build a time machine to skip 2 months into the future to sample my hard work and dedication?

I saw a Saturday Night Live skit where they had some cold medicine that would make you hibernate for like 5 months until you weren't sick anymore. Hahaha. Maybe they have invented it by now? :hippy:

This would be my 3rd or so over the years and have some questions about maximizing my yield... or at least not to jeopardize it ;) (Sorry no pics at this time) Quick overview... Strain(s): -No idea... bag seeds, but of good quality (from the look of the plants so far, some are a sativa dominate strain and just the opposite for the rest, indica dominate) Soil: Rating: 5
