FFOF for flowering

I just transplanted my clones from solo cups to 1.5 gallon pots. I've read that nutes are not needed for 3-4 weeks after transplant with FFOF. I've mixed in garden lime into my soil and am currently using mykos during transplant. My question is when I transplant into 5 gallon pots 10 days before flowering will I need to add bloom nutes once I flip the lights to 12/12? It will have fresh FFOF in the pot during the final transplant which already has some nutes in it.

What do you FFOF users do/prefer?
Thanks

I start off light on the nutes after transplant. About 1/4 dose. Then work your way up to full strength.

I prefer a 2:2:1 ratio of FFHF: FFOF: medium coarse perlite

I transplant rooted clones directly into this medium.
Water for two weeks.
Start using fert at 1/4 strength.
Gradually increase fert strength over the following weeks.
Any transplanting after the clones should be followed up with nutrients. The soil only really has enough nutes to support a small preveg plant and not a full veg or bloom plant.

Also Fox farm has a pretty good nutrient calculator. Just remember start low and increase as your plants ask for it.
 
I have some strains that don't even like 1/4 strength after 3-4 weeks of being in FFOF. Def start with too little than too much.

I use FFOF from seedling to end of flowering. Works great, I'll reuse it too. My current soil mix I add other amendments as well as used FFOF plus new FFOF.
