Flipping to 12/12

I'm flipping to 12/12 ,I have couple questions as this is my first grow , when do I start the flowering nutes? And do I start out giving quarter of them or is it safe to give them full strength ? I veg the plants (ak48 and kaya gold ) for well over 10 to 12 weeks and they was taking full strength veg nutes for at least 6 weeks . I feed them nutes once a week ,water them 3 times a week with mollases for one ,nutes for one and plain water for one... So they have had plenty of nutes ... Thanks for all replys ...

Well from the sounds of it you have been providing fertilizer (AKA "Nutes") for a bit of time and they seem to be doing well.

Why don't you just keep up the program you are with see how they do?

I've never watered 3 times/week but if this is working for you go for it.

Well they are the veg nutes ,( boost, grow ,sugar daddy ,route 66, and cal meg) but now I'm in the flower stage ...I have a set of flowering nutes for flower stage (bloom, blossoms,sugar daddy, Route 66 ,cal meg ) I think is the ones . I'm needing to know if full strength would be too much of them ,but I was doing full strength with the veg nutes so they nutes won't be new to them you know but thanks ...aim ...and yeah they are drinking a lot of water too sometimes (rarely) ill water 2x a week but when that happens they are completely dry and already dropped and I think that stresses them so I try not to let them be bone dry .

Start at 1/4 or 1/2 to just be safe. It'd be terrible to burn your newly flowering plants.

Technaflora, ahh this is a nice lineup. Just go ahead and follow your schedule, but on your next FEED cycle, just use the flowering nutes. I just flipped mine the day after my last veg feeding. Now I need to water them with plain PH'd water two more times, and I'm also going to switch my fertilizer over to flowering stage.
