Read what I wrote about the feeding schedule a few times

Then ask specific questions, not global questions like you just asked

You e done this long enough, you should have a decent understand of the process

Idk. My peyote cookies doesn't have 6 weeks of veg then. It only has 12 weeks of life today. This is my first time with a photo. Normally grow autos, and im still learning with them. She probably was only vegged for mabe 4 weeks if the first two week is seedling faze. I have so many questions, but dont know how to word it. I have to deal with this photo I have now, but trying to take this and apply it to my autos

The plant im talking about in this post is peyote cookies. I bought her thinking she was auto. Didn't know until week 6, after week 6 I switched lighting to 12/12. Now we're at week 12 of life. I got autoflowers then as well. I followed the directions with the fox farm nute schedule. I get what your saying with photo schedule, but because I didn't know it was an autoflower until week 6, plus didn't ask any questions until recently, so idk where I'm at on the schedule. Do autos follow the schedule exactly, or do you switch up nutes as you see them change? Ugh

Well 12 of life is pointless for a Photo

It's in week 6 of flower and should be treated as that

Autos are the same. Feed as veg till she start showing pistols, then switch to the flowering schedule

Ok, so if its in week 6 of flower, then that means I use week 5 nutes according to the schedule correct? Would you use half dose as well for photo? When would you switch to late flower? It says online i think my peyote cookies has an 8 week flower time.
For the autos if I get what your saying is to not give them week five nutes until they start to show pistols correct? When do you know when there in late flower?

Yer not understand the Nute Schedule

If you veg for 6 weeks, you use week 4 AMOUNTS till u flip,you don't use week 6, which is FLOWER nutes while still in VEG

Weeks 5-7 are early Bloom or transition
Weeks 8-10 are Mid Bloom
11-12 is late bloom

If you vegged for 6 weeks, and yer 5 in FLOWER, you should be feeding based on week 8 or 9 on the chart, not week 11


This make sense???????
Read this again

Focus, retain, read again

Ok I'll try once more

Weeks 1-4 are VEG
Weeks 5-6 are transition or early Bloom
So week 5 on the chart is week one of flower or 1st week after flip to 12/12

So take this schedule, change the week 5 to week 1 of flower and change the rest

Does that make sense

You know what, next grow, I'm going to be hit you up every week, if thats ok, to go over what I'm thinking about doing, and what you know will works. I get what your saying about 1-4 being veg, 5-6 transition, 8-10 flower, and 11-12 late flower, but im having trouble understanding how to apply this to autos that just do shit when they want to do it. I feel it would be easier hitting you up atleast once a week, compared to me waiting 5 weeks until we got major issues. I will learn eventually, i dont quit. I learn from my mistakes every grow, I just find a way to make new mistakes . Thank you for your time, you have been a help.
I would assume tho that since my photo was vegged for 5 weeks, I suppose I'm around week 11. I could be wrong, it seems like she needs alot more phosphorus still which leads me to believe were still in flower. I increased the grow big and tiger bloom by one ml. I finally started to pay attention to the bottle and saw that the grow big and tiger bloom have alot of phosphorus in it. Tiger bloom ofcourse having the most phosphorus. Hopefully that will fix her up. Im wandering if I should have just bumped up the tiger bloom, but we are learning. One thing is for certain is I need to get better with nutes in order to keep progressing. I want to see my plants look as good as on TV . Atleast I will have more than a lb after this grow. Hard work pays off

If you want to learn nutes better

Shitcan Fox Farm and get GH flora trio, cheaper, better, easier
Everyone will tossing the powder nutes, I've done Mega Crop, it's fine, you could try that too
Maybe mega Crop is better since you cant read a calendar and count weeks. ...lol

How do you figure out when and what nutes to give?
I know this thread has sat for a bit but going to short necro it...

OP:

The best way right now you could learn what and how much "nute" to give your plants is to learn several specific things;

-How NPK works and why it is that way. Not a deep doctoral level by any means but to a level that you can read the numbers and understand why.

-How the photo-period works to cause flower growth in marijuana and the difference of what type of nutrients the plant wants in the two phases of growth

-The differences between seedling and vegetative and flowering phase of plant life and how they transition chemically in a simple way.

First look at this. I glanced through it and it seems to contain info that will assist you if you don't already know this.

https://wayofleaf.com/cannabis/growing/what-is-npk

just a starting point.

Overall any nutrient guide even the ones written by the company who made the product are suggestions. Life varies so does plant life. Use those schedules as a suggested possible way to use it. But if you switch to 12/12 lighting on your photo-period plant start feeding however it says to for that light style for flowering ignore the weeks follow the phase you are in.

So I got some leaves starting to purple on my peyote cookies. I think its a phosphorus deficiency. I assume it could be related to low bloom nutes? Im giving it half the dose recommended for fox farm (7.5ml of big bloom, and 2.5ml of tiger bloom). I have been giving nutes every other feeding. So I give water, nutes, water, nutes, etc. My plant is 11 weeks old. She is a photo as well. I used fox farm happy frog soil. Used mycorrhizae, but didn't give any molasses, or add any more during grow. Any other questions?
Low temps?

Yes to the Mega Crop.

Even experienced grows want to make it easier on themselves sometimes :)

It is a pretty simple fertilizer to user for people that are having a harder time with multipart or complex line ups. It is a lot cheaper just gotta get use to it.
