so im pretty new on week 3 with these ladies ive been using the general hydroponics flora mix and calmagic for my plants (calmagic was needed due to a calcium def) im giving them their full nutirients today and i wanna make sure they are getting the right mix
to begin i was giving them 2 parts gro 1 part micro 1 part bloom based off an internet search. they seem to be ok with it i gave them 3/4 strength mix last week when i did the last nute mix then flushed and now its nute time again. but i feel they need more of something
week 3 18/6 2 600w (220w) mars hydro blurples in a 4x4 tent but the 4 plants are in 4 gallon containers in probably a 2x2 area directly under each light about 18-24 inches in a black magic potting soil mix watered when knuckle deep dryish roughly 82 deg 40-50 humidity and good air flow
what mix should i use today??
pics coming from phone in next comment

To me, veg time is really dependent on how large your grow area is. Expect them to double, sometimes triple in size. So if you have the vertical space for doubling or tripling in size, you have some time to go before flipping. Have you topped them yet?

I would look it up on line, or even watch a YouTube video. I could explain how, but visually seeing how it’s done would be easier to understand, and why doing it isn’t necessarily needed, but recommend for more shots.

they are like 10-14 inches tall besides the one i trained, and they all kinda grow at an angle is that ok. i attempted to tie them all down but only really worked on one, the dwarf. still not sure what nute mix to use tho lol

Clones typically veg for about 2 weeks. In your case you can get away with longer veg times because you have the space. I would definitely recommend topping to increase your yield though. And as far as them leaning, they do that, but they will eventually straighten out the older they get. Nothing to be too worried about.

ok is there an apropriate time to do that after nutes? i ended up going with the sudgestin from a previous post from Vick074

Week 1 (rooted clones or 3 leaf-sets on seedlings) : 2.5 ml EACH Grow, Micro & Bloom
Week 2: 5ml Grow + 2.5ml Micro + 2.5ml Bloom
Week 3: 10ml Grow + 5ml Micro + 3ml Bloom
Week 4 until 12/12 : 12ml Grow + 6ml Micro + 3ml Bloom
Week 1 of 12/12 : 6ml Grow + 6mil Micro+10ml Bloom
Week 2 of 12/12: 3ml Grow + 7ml Miccro + 12ml Bloom
Week 3: 3ml Grow + 8ml Micro + 14ml Bloom
Week 4: 3ml Grow + 8ml Micro + 16ml Bloom
Week 5: 2..5 Grow + 7ml Micro + 18ml Bloom
Week 6: NO GROW + 6ml Micro + 20ml Bloom USE UNTIL FLUSH!
Flush 10-14 days before harvesting

Not very familiar with flora, but I’m not sure why the bottles are recommending using a bloom fert during veg?

My thoughts as well. Your plants in veg need veg nutes. With the occasional calmag and micro nutes. I usually feed veg nutes. Then next feed I give them veg and calmag. Then the third week I give them veg nutes and micro. I usually feed about 50-75% strength. Never go off the manufacturer’s recommendations. Always go by ppm. Or Ec. Their recommendations are usually way hot. Less is more. Your plant will show signs when there is a problem. That’s when you dose up if needed
