Looking good man, do you plan on using a ripening formula? Since your using General hydroponics like me look into Dry Koolbloom. You only need a small amount.

I haven't looked into any ripening products at all

What do they do? help fatten up buds? help with taste?
 
Dry koolbloom provides an intense final push at the end of the plants life cycle. lol I googled for that answer
 
I started the dry koolbloom I believe in the beginning of week 6 so day 42 and I used it until I begin my flush. Which I flush week 8 and week 9.
 
When I posted that ginormous list of the nutes I use, I didn't mention that about half of them were specific micro-nutrients, added microbes and mycorrhizae, etc. All have a little of the basic N P or K but it is mostly that specialized stuff.

If you look at the article I posted about the 4 stages of flower, I think the specifically designed 'bloom' food should be something that specifies either different ingredients during flower, or differing amounts that address the different needs during the different stages.

If it says 'feed the same amount from flip until harvest" I would be hesitant.
If it says "during last weeks of flower" or "at first sign of pistils" or some other specific short timeframe I would trust it more.
 
I know that silica (potassium silicate) helps with strengthening the cell structure so the plant can support more weight and will produce larger cola and fatter stems to transport food.

Several other items like this, but it's easier to go with something that is already tested and 'scheduled" for you so you don't end up buying 10 different things.
 
Hey guys, gonna keep everything contained to this thread

Here's the next run:
Space cookies by paradise seeds

They are little over month old. Growing in FFOF again and this time vegged under 324w of t5ho, will finish vegging under 315lec

I plan to veg these girls until my other 4 are done(prob another month or so) Then I'll move them to the flower tent under the 600w hps

Would you guys up pot now? Move them into their final pots?

What size pots should I go with? 2 plants are gonna move into a 4x4 tent under 600w hps

I have 5g, 7g and 10g pots available to me.

Anyone else who's wants to chime in , by all means , I'm open to suggestions

If you aren't root bound I would wait a little while, repot them when you are about 14 days from putting them into flower. This way they don't risk getting root bound in flower Pot size is something that I always go big on. Bigger the root, bigger the fruit.

Ok, i was thinking along similar lines, although i was thinking the faster i get them in the bigger pots, the bigger they will be

I can see the flaw in that logic tho lol if they havent outgrown the 3g, they prob dont need a 10g yet lol

Well I put my rooted clones straight into 10 gallon so what do I know right? lol
 
Ya I would leave them in the 3 gallons till a little bit before you flower them out like Renfro said. A 3 Gallon fabric pot can hold a pretty damn big plant without it getting rootbound
 
Day 37 since flip
