you can change the ratio of your feed on the end .. with more p and k yes but little quantities ... especially K
K will compact your buds
p mid bloom
and k end bloom
but in organic i dot really bother all ratios are working honestly ... the thing is to give just enough


i use tomatoe growers technique to steer the plant and make the bud explode
"positive stress":
water stress: reduce de dryback progressively.. but never reach the wilt point even the last day .. and with cold water the last days
temp stress : reduce temp if possible
nutrient stress: i cut the nutrients on the end, another signal for the plant that its time to hurry and produce max buds/resin to attract pollen from the males

trying to mimic nature to push the plants to give us their best

One more to add to that list, is to raise your lights (or dim a bit them if possible) the last few to several days before harvest, to signal end of season.

ah yeah forgot the light
honestly i used to think its good to mimic the autumn by rasing the light ..
now i do the contrary .. i put the light closest of the buds ..
lumens shock
if youre able to maintan cool temp at th canopy but able to give 60 000 lux the thc content/terpene will be unbeatable

Thanks for dropping in, I have a mega big bitch booty fat, and a few that just ain’t up to par this year any ideas on what I can add to them to make the buds blow up I got about 4-5 weeks before I chop them?
Potassium Silicate really hardens buds, I say a tablespoon of Kelp Powder , 20ml of Potassium Silicate and 10ml of PK heavy (potassium and Phosphorus) per 20 litres of water, watered on.
