To answer your question OP yes you will need to change to a bloom fertilizer two weeks into flowering. Good Luck

Hell yea dude.. MG is not friends with MJ. Look around and you will see more ppl saying that. If I were you I would stop giving it any kind of chemical nutes. Those are really only necessary if ur growing commercially, and I still dont agree with it then.

ah again with the mg hating, mg is alright, but in all seriousness, if u want to progress to be a good acomplished grower, youll move on from it and try better nutrients, but if u want to use it for now its fine. just dnt use anything above the recommended dose. u should really cut the recommended amount/gal in half, i did, a tsp instead of the advised tbsp/gal. i did use it full strength once a week for the first month or so of feedings with no burn issues, but still, its not necessary to give it that much, do a tsp/ gal every 7-10 days. i used it last year with good results but this year i actually decided to but a little money into it and got some good organic nutes. heres my best from last year, yielded a 1/2 lb out of a 6 gal pot, mg soil and nutes

You need a crap factor.. usually bat guano or chicken scat. Then you can add some earthworm castings and compost if you have it. Some boiled egg shells, coffee grounds, and wood ash are also good.

You want high Nitrogen (N) in veg and higher Phosohorous (P) in flower..the potassium (K) stays the same throughout mostly...

alright i gotta get this out, this has repeatadely been ur recommendation, u dnt just throw a buncha shit egg shells and coffee grounds in a hole, mix it and wallah, organic gardening. are u even looking into what each of those ingredients are providing for ur plant, or how much of them u rele need to make a well balanced mix? cuz its not just adding some shit and egg shells to ur soil. although these things do benefit ur plant, u need to go about things with a sense of order before u go throwing a barrage of shit together attempting to mix ur own soil.
