What would you call the 1st week of flower?

[Tomzy17]

would you call the first week straight after flipping or a week after the flip?

 

[KrazyG]

I count flowering after stretch has finished, usually 2 weeks after flip.

 

[Tomzy17]

Cheers bro doing my first hydro grow and deciding whether to flip tonight or not haha think I’m gonna tbh

 

[BushMaster15]

I call that the transition period into flowering.

 

[Tomzy17]

Sweet man was only wondering as I’m still waiting for my bloom nutes to turn up, but I’ve flipped tonight so when they next go to dark period it’ll be 12 hours, going to leave my nutes as they are probably till Sunday then drain my system rinse out and refill with bloom nutes

 

[BushMaster15]

In my experience, I use veg nutes thru the flowering stretch.. weeks 1-3 usually.

 

[Tomzy17]

Ok so I should leave it for atleast a couple of weeks then?

 

[gwheels]

I turn to 12 12 and then 7 days after that is the first week of flower. Usually 10 weeks after that regardless of seed bank claim is harvest. That is how she rolls

 

[BushMaster15]

I'd use your veg nutes until your plants stop stretching. I'm sure you'll be able to notice it.. especially if you check up on them daily.

 

[Tomzy17]

Thanks for the advice guys appreciate it!

 

[gwheels]

Bushmaster15 is right. Run veg nutes for 2 weeks or so and then transition to flower nutes. Your plants will love it and that is how it works the best.

 

[Tomzy17]

Sweet man that’s what I’m gonna do, what ppms do you guys run during transition?

 

[BushMaster15]

I don't measure any of that.. I'm in super soil. I'd like to try my hand at hydro though.

I’m loving giving hydro a go, I decided to go for a rdwc system, with 8 plants and trying my first scrOG over 4 of them will attach a couple of pics in a sec, had 2 stunted plants weren’t the best condition when I got them as clones from a friend

Do coco coir first and get get coco. It is like hydro without the working parts !

Sorry about pics just put my super hps flowering bulbs in today, the last pic is one of the runts I decided to supercrop and it started to grow a bit more now lol.

Isn't it exciting seeing the yellow lights, after switching from MH!

Some nutrients also have a note schedule for the "transition" period, that is a little different that both the veg and flower dosages. (Ie. on the General Hydroponics feed chart.)

 

[Lucky Luke]

soon as I switch I call it flower.
