In two days it will be week 6 of flowering. They were just watered with straight water a few days ago. At 6.5 weeks it will be time to feed\water again.
Do I give them nutes? or straight water? I read where you don't feed them for the last two weeks.
the buds are nice but they are small....kinda..... can i expect them to get any bigger and will feeding more nutes at this point really help any?
I'm using Fox Farms, full 6 line.....
There is no proof either way in the argument that has been going on now for 20+ years over feeding pot plants before harvest.
You have two sides to this argument:
1. One side says to feed right up to harvest. These people say it makes no difference in taste and nutes aren't absorbed into the plant anyway and will make larger buds because the plant will continue to grow at it's best until you kill it.
2. The other side says that the nutes flavor the weed and it will taste better if those nutes are not in the plant at harvest.
As I said, there has been NO testing done to prove it either way. I've heard stories from countless people on both sides of the argument that SWEAR they are right.
What it comes down to is you need to do it both ways and then make up your own mind as to which method you've convinced yourself is the right one.
Sorry man, there is no real answer to your question. It depends entirely on which large group of growers you want to believe with neither side having any proof anyway.
Oh yeah, here's the clincher:
Both sides will swear also that they've done testing to prove it.
Both can't possibly be correct. One of them is wrong.
You chose.
hehe, that's the best and most honest answer there is.
