Fair enough if you haven't got the cash, we all have those times..you can start giving them to her now but at a weaker strength to the recommended strength. at least half strength id say. I'm not an expert when it comes to nutes, as i said i only jsut started to use them properly but a common brand which is quite reuptable is canna. They do a whole range of nutrients but for you id recommend canna boost and canna pk13/14. There available on ebay from the uk, pk13/14 is about 3 quid for a small bottle but the boost is about 15. Use the boost throughout flowering(half strength see how she reacts) until a week before harvest and use the pk from week 5 - 7. Then plain water from week 7.5 onwards to get rid of any nasties left inside of the plant. Hope this helps, C
