Alot of people have success switching to their Blossom booster in week 3 of flower (10-30-20 this is closer to the N-P-K ratio that I personally use in flower not taking into account any additives or boosters I may be running for a strain). I believe the 8oz size can be had for 5-10$ on ebay or amazon or the like and will last you for 2 grows. -S0uP
+ Rep bro. I appreciate the feed back. That being said I had already made of purchase of sensi bloom and sensi grow and I couldn't return them. On the feeding schedule of AN it says to throw in B-52, Bud candy, and voodoo juice. Do you know anything about those or that set up, and what might be some good alternatives for them. I also have previously purchase a liquid grape sweetener with the following percents 1.5% magnesium and 2.5% sulfur and Humboldt county's own snow storm which has the following percents 3.0% soluble potash. Other than those liquid ingredients I had a couple small things i've put on top of my soil just to start them off. Bud candy is said to contain essential amino acids for the plant, and B-52 the multiply vitamins it needs. Are they worth the money, or can my plan fulfill these requirements with things i'm already getting?

The sensi line is pretty solid, you wont need cal/mag but I would still run silica with it. Bud candy is carbohydrates for your plants, you can substitute molasses in soil, its not as complete but will serve its purpose for far less, I would never run it in a water culture system since the consequences far out way the benefits. B-52 in my opinion is not needed for any stage of life. VooDoo juice is over priced garbage and any number of products could be substituted for better performing products at a lower price tier, you could look up making your own teas for less than 1$gallon, the initial cost would be something like 60$. If your into the whole convenience aspect (sounds like you are) I recommend great white as a substitute. Goodluck. -S0uP

Here is the key to the answer to your question... "I am tight on cash".... Hmm sounds to me like an organic soil grow, indoors you will need to use CFL 6500K for veg
2700K for flower. Try to maintain 3000 (5k Opt) lumes when using cfl about 2 to 3 inches away, multiples 24w 1600 lume bulbs, in over top and sides.
If you go organic soil in cloth pots you plants will rock. If you can get a LED G8 LED 8 band 3w bulbs ufo for less then $180 for the top and cfl on the sides you will do well compared to spending all kinds of dough on nutrients and even hydro equipment.
Most folk can tell ya about NPK, I am telling ya about CPG! Cost per grow. That is you'll find for what it takes to go orgo n so you get more bang for your buck on average.
I am sure others will disagree, its a free freaking country so you can be the judge for yourself.
As for me an my cash we ain't smoking no chemical fed hash...
Thanks for the info, as I just figured that out tonight. Decided to go ahead and go with some compost teas that are all mostly organic along side the Sensi pH perfect grow and bloom line up, as i've already purchased these. I've pm'ed another user in regards to Liquid Karma and Great white. Besides the sensi grow and bloom these were the two other nutes that I wanted some more info on, in regards to any organic subs I could use in place of them. The LK is called for in my compost tea ingredients, and I was going to use GW in replaces of AN's Voodoo Juice. I'm up for any suggestions that you've or anyone you know might've tried as long as they saw positive results. It seems like the organic way is the cheaper, smarter way to go. As for lights I just got a bitchin EnviroGro 4 tube T5. The stats on that are a built in ballast with up to 20k lumen output, and the lumen power rating is 120v/60hz/1.8a/216W. Along with it came four high output fluorescent 6400k tubes. Thanks for any comments and suggestions.Here is the key to the answer to your question... "I am tight on cash"....

There is no one right way to grow--- or everyone would do it exactly the same- get the same results, and have absolutely no questions or issues...
There are SO M ANY choices out there... from Miracle Grow to Fish emulsion to Fox Farms and Dutch Master....
Depends on what works FOR YOU in YOUR SOIL with YOUR WATER etc... AND what is available where you live and what kind of budget you have AND how much patience you have (do you want just a 1 part grow/bloom and a Supplement, or an 8-part chemistry set?)
Below is a link to a list of a LOT (but by no means all) of the most-often used nutes and how to use them.
The info for each comes directly from the manufacturer.. except the ones for miracle grow and Fish emulsion...
MANY NUTES and FEEDING CHART FOR THEM:

organic or synthetic it is all salts, just different ways to break them down to usable form for the plant to use, the plant doesn't know if it got nitrogen from organic or synthetic, it just absorbs what it needs.Here is the key to the answer to your question...
