since you're in soil make sure your ph is 6.5-6.8.

Not sure what to tell you. My first reaction would be to stop using that mix of nutrients while i did some research to make sure that the mix contained everything my plants need in the proper ratios for early flowering. Your plant needs slightly higher P and K during early flowering, but not at the expense of N. I'm not familiar with your brand of nutes, but your NPK ratio should be no more then a 1-2-1(maybe a 1-2.5-1.5) this early in flowering, and whatever you give it also has to have all the micronutrients. You also need to build up when giving nutes- always start out with about 1/4 of the recommended dosage and add to that with each feeding. As soon as you see any signs of nute burn go back to the last dosage you used without it burning and use that from then on out. DO NOT pay attention to specific feeding schedules that tell you what.how much to feed based on a calender-plants don't grow according to our schedules, and trying to force them to is just going to cause you headaches.
When you get farther into flowering your going to want to increase your P levels a bit more, but once again do not neglect the N. There are way too many nutes out there that are supposed to be bloom enhancers that have ratios like 1-6-3 or 0-50-30, and while they will make your buds grow they do it at the expense of healthy leaves. Don't buy into the snake oil and hype-keep your plants green and healthy through harvest and you'll be happy with the results.
