Think you are going to have to keep an eye out for calcium and magnesium problem. Also in flower they will need pk boost.how old is the plant at the moment

I'm confused by your question... Tell me if I have this correct.

You have a plant in veg, but don't think you need veg nutes, right?
However, you want to know what nutes to use in flower...

Is this correct?
If so, then yea, you really don't need veg nutes if you are vegging for a short time (3-4 weeks). Your soil will have the required nutrients.
As discussed you will need cal/mag if using RO water (I add calmag no matter what I'm doing) and bloom nutes to get you through to harvest. Any bloom nutes will do. I'm sure some are better than others, but common nutes are fox farms, General Hydroponics, Advanced etc..

If you're under LED I think I recall something about plants requiring extra Cal/mag. I can't exactly recall.

You are correct ... so what all should I use in veg then besides cal mag I have the cal mag from fox farm. Should I use some more nutes in veg I want to go about 6 weeks. And still what's the best flower nutes I want to stay simple but right . Keep the ph right keep a good temp plenty of light and air moving .. I forgot all about cal mag love you guys

big bud isn't a pk booster, it's a mix of amino acids and sulfur. I've been using it since it was dr hornbys big bud, I've ran cuts side by side and the big bud cuts all ended up waaaay better, showing trichomes a full week sooner, the buds were indeed bigger lol

Okay sorry guys I'm still a noob I basically want to know the best combo of nutes to feed her without missing anything I used the whole fox farm kit in the past and felt i didn't do it well or it wasn't what I need to get rock hard nugs.. any suggestions what would be a good PK booster and combo. and if I used a couple advanced nutes which all do I have to buy and what ones do I not really need .

I'm thinking I might go with Sensi from advanced and try that .. a little grow after week 4 of veg then I'll use sensi bloom with big bud and bud candy .. and buy cal mag since I'm using a LED. Should this be good results ? Missing anything ? Just want a good clean start

plants grow to their weakest resource. You get to decide what that is. Low C02, high heat, high RH, no air flow, sub-par lighting,
ill water, etc......once decided on which one you will purposely short your plant....you'll find adding anything but what the plant already lacks is redundant and often causes issues.

I think your over thinking things ..just get 3 nutrients part 1 .coco grow part 2 coco bloom part 3 coco boost .. easy to use part 1 in veg part 2 as you flip to flower part 3 .2 weeks into flower. Always have calmag at hand. . Make sure temp are good with good airflow plenty of light .. job done ..buds depend on the strain . Less is more .don't go full dose .. then you should get to harvest without problems . Then it's cut dry and cure time
