I don't see that as a complete flowering fertilizer. A good example of the proper proportions of N, P. & K would be 5, 30, 15. A ratio like that is ideal for flowering. I believe you need more P. So, you have plenty of K and a little bit of P, but there's no N.

for flowering, N is not really necessary if the plant is health and lush. it will have enough N stored...but with that said, I would be skeptical of claims that a fertilizer can aid in disease and frost control. disease control is microorganisms in your soil, not the fertilizer you use.

What he said. You want phos for flowering. Personally, Im big on organics. Blood meal is full of nitro and bone meal is all phos. A frickin banana peel is LOADED with phos, LOL...Im saving my banana peels, cutting them real tiny so they break down quick, and adding them to my mondo compost. (actually, my Mondo Compost Tea CAN grow hair on a golf ball, but who wants a hairy golf ball?)

One thing to remember is, the chem ferts all SOUND like they will gtow hair on a golf ball, but they are really just the components, nitro, phos and potassium. So, dont be fooled by the claims on the package. Of course there's other additives like vitamins, trace minerals and amino acids, a horse of a different color, entirely.

LOL ...

I've got a product called Nitrosol which is high in Nitrogen (never of guessed it by the name! ... ) but yeah, was under the impression in flowering I'd be looking for Phosphorus & Potassium

Gonna give this other stuff a dose of tonight I reckon.

Cheers

You're right! Im wrong! Just watched KOB the Australian grower on youtube...and he sez give em a jolt of potash the last month before harvest.
