Nutrient conversion question

Hello everyone,

I'm five weeks into my first grow. I started from seeds. I'm starting simple, using soil, ghetto CO2, I did get a good light though, 400w with an MH conversion bulb and a HPS to follow when I flower. I water out of a bucket that has been chlorine treated. I've been giving them about 2 cups of water every other day. Nutes every four days. My girls (fingers crossed) are just about a foot tall.

I do have a few questions for any experienced folks reading this.

1. Can you tell what kind of strain I'm growing? I got the seeds from a friend and they came with no info.

2. Without the info on strain, when is a good time to start flowering?

3. The newbie guide by Widow Maker recommends using 20-5-5 for nutes during the grow stage. Well, I searched all around in my local nurseries and garden supply places and couldn't find anything that had those numbers. I did get something that is 4-1-1, the right ratio. So if Widow Maker recommends using 20-5-5 at 600 PPM, does that mean that I should be using 4-1-1 at five times that, 3000 PPM?

Thanks in advance for any help.
