i am in the 3rd week of flowering and i want to make my buds thick and big using a 400 wt hps and only four females about 20 inches tall ,already have buds poping out everywhere but i think now i need some fert or nutes. i got 30-10 -10 high in n 10 in p and k would that be a good fert to make em big and thick?
Uh...no silly... ...NOOOOOOOOOO....don't use that shit for flowerin'...knucklehead...c'mon...use yer' head...come flowerin' time...you "wa"nt to use a nute regimen lower in Nitrogen...higher in the other two...the p words...if you use the 30-10-10 for flowerin'...it's safe to say...you'll burn the livin' shit right out of yer' badass plant...do some research before applyin' nutes of that strength...did I say do yer' research first...good... ...DC for THC...
man you are slick daze. high nitorgen during flower also creates leafy plants. nitrogen, which is the first # of the 3, is used for building roots and foliage. you need small amounts of nitro after the first cupl weeks of 12-12.
you should buy a grow guide and you will understand more what you are doing...I like the jorge cerventas guide
Are You Vegging Out? I agree wholeheartedly with Dazechain. During flowering, you need to decrease the amount of Nitrogen, and increase the Phosphorus and Potassium. (N-P-K: N = Nitrogen; P = Phosphorus; K = Potassium) Unless, of course, your aim is to produce a lot of leaves and very little bud. The change in nutrients combines with the change in your light regimen, and tells your plants that it's time to flower. You change that, and either continue using, or go back to high Nitrogen, you're telling your plants to either stay in, or revert to vegetation. If you're growing organically (in soil), I would highly recommend the Fox Farm line of products. At your present stage, you would be looking at 17 ml of Tiger Bloom (2-8-4), 15 ml of Big Bloom (0.01-0.3-0.7), 5 ml of B-1, with 1/5 tsp. of Beastie Buds (0-50-30) as a kicker. Notice the higher amounts on the second number - this is your aim. The above amounts are per gallon (4 litres) of water. Unfortunately, if you are a hydro grower, I would not know what to tell you. I'm strictly organic.
Dont make the second number too high either, if its too high, it can lock out other nutrients if im not wrong....
