Floranova grow 7-4-10 by general hydroponics

Hey there roll it up community,

Im new to growing so i don't really know much about feeding the plants properly, but I went a couple weeks back to a hydroponics store and picked up a 1 pint floranova grow by general hydroponics. The employee at the shop recommended the bottle due to me telling him that i wanted something that would be good to use throughout the entire grow, resulting in him recommending the floranova grow. So, my question to you is if it is true that the floranova grow nutrients by itself will be sufficient for the entire life cycle of my plants or will I need to get a bloom nutrient as well? I currently have a purple sunset autoflower beginning to show signs of flower, so im not to sure if i should just stick with the grow as is, since everything is doing fine or to buy a bloom bottle due to the transition of my plants life cycle. Any input would be appreciated, thank you all in advance !

personally, u can get away with one nutrient but it's better to run two. what I've been using to pretty good success is the Gh Flora series just using Micro and bloom. in veg, i use a 5ml of micro and 2.5 ml of bloom per gal of water. after that, I usually wait to see what the plant is wanting usually at this point it wants more micro/Epsom. in flower, I've been running 5ml of micro to 10 of bloom per gal going to back off pretty soon. u just have to learn how to read the leaves, which comes with time and practice. hope I didn't scare u. on what I think about using just the one nutrient only is your gonna have problems sooner or later.

it works it's just not what I wanted to run because I was getting just imbalances with n-p-k ratio. it's very close to the Lucas Formula but a little tweaked. I would like to think I'm using more closer to h3ads formula.

in the end, I would like to think I'm around 2-5-5 for npk values.
