I have 3 plants at about 4 weeks old. Looking very healthy and growing nicely. For about the last week, I've been feeding them 28-14-14. They seem to be loving it. Is there any recommended n-k-p that i should be using, or should i stick to this??.. Also.. I will start flowering in a few days, does any1 suggest anything for me to use?? Suggestion on n-k-p for flowering????
Help!!

From what I have seen people suggest a higher N during VEG, and a higher K during flower.

Well if there about 4 weeks old i would say your are doin great with fertalizer.
You want a higher nitrogen fert like a good number would be 20-10-10. It helps the stem grow stronger and the leaves grow larger and both faster. So with what your using.... I wouldn't suggest anything. Your plant is probably lovin every moment of the fertalizer and lovin you. When it is time for flowering i would suggest a lower nitrogen higher phosphorus and higher potassium like say 10-20-20. Good luck on your growth may the buds be great in size and high in THC Amen.... lol

You shouldn't feed them untill there about 4 weeks old to begin with.

Stop talking. Just because you read that somewhere doesn't mean its true.
Is he using soil? Or is he using hydroponics/aeroponics or is he using a soiless mix? You know NOTHING about his grow setup.
Keep doing what your doing until you flower, then follow what the other guys said! Just watch your plants and how they react.

AHHH...sooooo sorry master.
Next time you don't have to be so rude ass hole. It's a known fact that generally you don't start feeding till 4 weeks in soil, and i was assuming it was.

Someone needs a toke, lol. Dude why so angry towards homegrown? lol.
Anyways Swift, I would say you are doing fine right now with those nutes. Once you are ready to flower you can change the nutes to one that has more potasium and phosphate to it rather than the larger nitrogen number. I also use a bloom fortifier in bloom stage until 2 weeks before harvest to help ripen the buds. Good luck.

I agree with ya . Might not be at 4 weeks, but I don't give em nutes until they need them either. About the time when i transplant the cubes in the tray to larger pots. That is when i start using the nutes.

Ya exactly...I grow in soil, and found this great soil from a local farm that has no nutes at all, so i start at about 2 weeks...but most people buy MG or something that already has nutes in it, and that generally lasts 3-4 weeks.
Whats up every1... Thanks for the comments.. I'm glad u guy could help me out.. So for all that didnt know, i am using soil. I bought it from home depot.. The plants seem real healthy!!! nice stem growth and leaves aswell. I guess what I'm using is doing the job nicely.. So i recently went to High Times store and picked up a three pack of nutes.. I spoke with the dude there and he recommended that I buy that.. Since all the others we pretty high in price, these three came like a package for only 30$.. I will post the N-P-K values when i bring it home..( stoners tend to forget) lol... So It's been about 3 days and 12/12 and they seem to be loving it.. I gotta change the box tho cuz there getting to big to be in there... 1 question before i go.. The guy at High Times told me that since my seed came from some stuff I bought, theres more chances they are females.. Is this true ?? Or is there still a 50/50 chance.. I haven't spotted any pollen sacks till now which is a good sign so I'm crossing my fingers... Anyhow I'll keep you guys posted as i go along.. I'll try to throw in some pics..
Laterz!!
