    i have been using a mixture of super tea mix and maxi crop. the maxi crop is 1-0-4 and the tea mix is 5-5-1 i know you need to drastically lower the n and raise the p and k for flowering. so my question is can i use the same stuff but just change the quantities? i have been doing 4 ml of tea mix and 8 ml of maxicrop per gallon.
    i have one week till i flower....
    peace devorah

    I cant see how. Unless Im figurin it wrong your endin up with somethin like a 7-5-9 npk ratio when your done mixin the way you are and thats great for vegin but I cant see how you would get them npk numbers your usin to make up a flower formula in any ratios. I think your gonna have to getcherself a flower formula, but getcherself a 2 part like ya got for vegin so you can get used to your plants spesific needs.

    A. Continue to use veg nutrients during the first 3 weeks of veg. The plant needs N for the 'stretch', during which the plant more than doubles in height.

    B. It's better to switch to a flowering nutrient rather than the hit-or-miss method of adjusting ratio's.
