couple quick flowering questions

Im about to put my plant in flowering i just need to know a couple things first...


when i switch my lights to 12/12...
do i keep the time the lights come on the same or do i keep when they turn off the same??

and how would i switch over from the nutes im using now to the flowering nutes im going to buy?

take the time off of the end of the light cycle.

sooo if i turned my lights off at 11pm i would turn them on at 11am?

from what iv read your supposed to keep the dawn time..
what is it??

the dawn time is when your lights come on, so yeah, if you had the lights coming on at 11 am you would leave that be and start shutting them off at 11 pm.(or if you had em turn on at 11pm then off at 11 am now)

i misunderstood what you said i think. if you were turning the lights on at 11 am keep that like it is and start shutting them off at 11 pm. keeping your lights on time the same.

ohh k lol, it was probably me haha i was high writing it...
k
and for nutes right now its im just doing
nute water water nute....
but,
how would i add the new flowering nutes intomy plant?

buy your flowering nutes and add it with what you've been using..might wanna read up..no offense but u sound real confused..what nutrients are u using now and what do u plan on buying??

switch them after about 2-3 weeks of flowering. those first 2 weeks the plants explode in veg growth when you toss em into flower so they are gonna be using lots of nitrogen.dont start your flower nutes at 100% full dose right away. also, some people say that your flower fert should contain no nitrogen, which is total nonsense imo, i'd much rather have my fan leaves stay alive and healthy and producing energy for the buds instead of them dying off from a nitrogen def.

yea add both..cuz their use to what you've already been feeding them so u dont wanna stop using the other shit..maybe lower that 20-20-20 a little bit just to be safe so u dont get burns..u got a EC or PPM meter to see what ur feeding em

I dont got anything cept for a plants water nutes and some lighhts lmao.

what is a EC? and is there any flowering nutes that you recommend?

ec meter and ppm meters test the nutrient strength in your water after u add and before u add nutrients..ppm is parts per million in your water..in flowering i never go over 1500 or try not to at least..its just easier to feed your plants..u wont over or under feed with a ec, ppm meter..

and for flowering nutrients..its hard to say..i never used what u use..the 20-20-20 but id say get whatever brand u want, me, i like advanced nutrients and general hydroponics. the only advice i can give u is try to get something with 0 as ur first number, which stands for nitrogen.. and ur last two numbers should b pretty even like 10-10 something like that..so when looking for flowering nutes make sure its somewhere around 0-10-10 or 2-10-10 or 0-5-10 something like that

Ohh k thanks man,
what nutirent does the plant most use in flowering stage?

and right now im using cfl's.
doo i have to change the lights for flowering??
what will happen if i dont?
