Unique nutrient question

My grow is 1 lowlife auto AK 47 and 1 skunk x big bud bubbleponic both in same container. Basically I've been modifying the nutrients to the AK 47's requirements but now that the AK is close to flush and chop I'm kinda at a lost as to what to do for nutrients for the massive big bud.

I'm unsure of dates at this point in the grow, been using GH at 1 ml veg 1.5 ml micro 1.5 ml bloom in 2L of water.

What should I be using as nutrients or whats a safe place to start with the big bud after AK chop?

erm bump? They're close to chop should I just go half strength at the highest veg stage on my chart?

How close to chop bud?
Welcome to RIU
if your 2 weeks before harvest you dont want to use any nutes
unless you like the taste of em.

same stuff
different day
whats up with u

Let me see if I've got this straight: you've been vegging (say at 18/6 light) with basically a veg nute mixture the entire time, and now that the autoflower is done you need to flush while still feeding the Big Bud.

If this is true then here's my opinion:

1. Do a flush with Clearex or similar product. This will help minimize your flush time. I personally would not flush for more than a day in this situation. If you're worried about taste, you might consider a water cure.

2. Then flip to 12/12 and give the Big Bud full strength transitional nutes, which I believe would be ~ 5ml grow, 5ml micro, 5ml bloom for 2L - but double check that. Then on your next res change go to full strength bloom mix.

I like the lil DWC option - good call!

Makes me wonder, though - are the roots intertwined?

Yeah that's what i lives by too.
Have a good night Bud

Hah you guys are pretty close I think I put in too much useless info. I'm asking for help on the big bud. I'm not sure where on the schedule she is and wanted to know what a safe starting point would be now that the AK is gone.

I put the AK in another container to flush, a bit early but my partner is getting a bit impatient and its just a matter of ripeness now.

shit I dunno, i wanna get some myself

I cant touch that one, other than start low and work up.
