Help With New Nutrient Additions!

What's up? I need some help with new nutrients that I recently purchased and which one of the two should I start using right now based on my plant's development.
I use Fox Farms Big Bloom and tiger bloom.
I've been fucking up and using old/expired bloom nutes on my babies, which I've recently come to realize; there was chunks in the tiger bloom.
I threw that shit away and bought a new bottle today. Hoping that the fresh nutes will help me out with some of my deficiencies that I couldn't seem to get a grip on.
Now my two clones, a double dream in a 1 gallon pot, and a gsc in a 3 gallon pot, are about to enter their 7th week of flower (if gauged by 12/12 flip). Both in fox farms happy frog. I want to add either fox farms beastie bloom concentrate, or their cha ching concentrate.
I am debating using the beastie bloom, which is supposed to help produce fat buds, because I feel like my buds haven't swelled yet.
So my question is, should I give my plant's the beastie for a week and then switch to cha ching for a week or two before the flush?
Or should I go straight to the cha ching?
I'm guessing I have 3-4 weeks left until harvest.
Any input or experience with these products is greatly appreciated.
Feel free to critique my plants; I'm always down to learn something.
Thanks!

It doesn't look like you need to add anything else to those plants. The leaves are curling and the tips are browning. Less would probably be better. Looks like you're going to get some good bud. I would not add anything and start tapering off the base nutes. Just my two cents.

Thanks for the honesty bro. I'll just save the new stuff for my next run.
Appreciate it!

-Picked up the FF Open Sesame for early bud development to early/middle weeks of flowering
-The Beastie Bloomz is for bulking, mid to final two weeks before the flush
-Cha Ching is for terps and hardening in the final two weeks before the flush
Each is used 1/4 tsp. per gallon/once a week, so I see these nutes lasting a while.
I gave my GSC a 1/4 tsp. dose of cha ching a week ago, since she still has 2-3 weeks to go. Showed no signs of stress(the nute burn already existed, in the pic), but the calyxes have gotten way stickier since last week and the terps are pungent as hell.
I'll be running my colored sand in stages during the next grow.
I'll post progress pics to document how well they work.

Hey bud I have a couple questions about those nutes? If you don't mind.

Ask away bro

Kool I want to put my plant I to flower but it's a dwc system and I was told that I have to cut my base nutrient in half when adding the open sesame. Basically I am giving her 17 ml of grow 17 of bloom and 17 of micro. So do I cut it in half or no? And how much would I put for dwc?

To start, your plant shouldn't have been receiving bloom nutes before the onset of flower. Usually, you would start bloom nutes at first sign of flowering, after the switch to 12/12.
Once flowering starts, you drop the grow nutes, and keep the bloom nutes and micro.
But, since you're already using bloom nutes, I would cut that in half for right now, cut the others down to 8.5 mls also, then add 1/4 teaspoon of open sesame for every gallon in your reservoir.
Make sure you use fresh water when starting the new mixture.

The nutrients I have it said I had to use all 3 that it was like a 3 step base nutrients. But not sure it hasn't affected the plant in a bad way though.

Sorry about the resend but basically I should stop the grow nutrient completely. And give it 8.5 ml of bloom and micro? Keep the cal mag at 15ml and hydroguard at 6 ml? Also I change my reservoir every week so give it open sesame every res change for how many weeks?

If they're supposed to be 3 "step" base nutrients, I think you would use them in steps then, right? I don't know why your plant would need bloom nutes during veg, but maybe the manufacturer knows something we don't!

Lol yea your right about that next grow I will try it how you recommended bro. I just didn't know first grow you know how that goes I think lol.

But I will cut out the grow.

That sounds like a good plan. And you will use the open sesame from now until about 3-4 weeks of flower, about mid flower, then drop it.

K so I'm starting flower today but I just lollipopped it. Should I wait and how bout beastie bloom do I need to cut down on base nutes with that as well?

The lollipopping won't matter. Yeah, you need to cut down on your base while using beastie and cha ching as well. Drop the open sesame then add the beastie for two weeks, drop the beastie and add cha ching for the final two weeks before flush.

K bout to go do a res change lol

Cool! And if you don't already do this, put a few oz of hot water in a cup, pour your open sesame in it, mix it, then pour it in your res. Dissolves way better. Good luck bro
