i'm not sure what rainbow mix bloom is? do the directions say to mix in with the soil? are there directions for mixing with water and feeding?

when did you top them? when did you stop topping them?

keep in mind that there is the 40/60 phenomena.

this basically says that the first 40% of time in flower is spent stretching and the last 60% is used to thicken up those flowers!

if they are dark green and the tips are starting to yellow then i'd say you are right at the edge of pushing them too far with the nutes. the dark green is more than likely too much nitrogen (which is not good in flower, although it could be a nute deficiency). the yellow tips are nute burn though (from the sounds of everything). so that coupled with the dark green is where i arrive at my answer.

you might want to post in the plant problems forum. fill out the troubleshooting form and post pics if ya got 'em.

headshake Reviewed by headshake on . Nutes this late??? So im on day 47 grow day 19 of flower. Im thinking of adding a bloom nute. I havnt even looked at what is available, but maybe I could get a few tips if I should, could, or shouldnt use. The soil I used was a Miracle Grow soil, with nutrients in it already sorta, one that retainded water better and a starter potting soil, plus perlite. My buds are looking good, and I have about 5.5 weeks left of 12/12 so, I dunno, I just wanna make her as big and strong as possible. Let me know. Thanks guys. Rating: 5
