When to add high phosphorus granular fertilizer?

[8-bit]

This year we're running about 20 autos with the foxfarm trio PLUS Cha ching 9-50-10 granular. The strain is Afghan ryder that we've grown and seeded to our climate the last couple years.


My question: when should i add cha ching to my autos? I have one that's 2weeks ahead of everything else, and is flowering like mad. Pictures are worth a thousand words, show me pics of plants you would start using Cha ching on!

you seem to be linking this high PHOSPHATE (P) fertiliser with use when flowering. if so you are in error. flowering requires high POTASH (K).

It says it helps produce essential oils aka resin and should be used at the final weekday of flowering, but I'm sort of lost because autos can take longer for buds to ripen trichs to mature in my experience even though they start flowering earlier

Final Weeks* of flowering

Directions for Use:
Start with Open Sesame® in the fifth or sixth week of a plant's life. Once bud set begins feed with Beastie Bloomz® for a two week period. After flowers are fully formed, switch to Cha Ching® and continue through harvest. Feed with every other watering.

I use what's been successful in commercial greenhouses I've been involved with for years ...C. Pool's BR 61; 9-58-8. Generally start half strength at first sign of budding, water every other, then full strength for 3 weeks and finally flush.

My experience with Afghan Ryder- doesn't grow gargantuan. Not sure if throwing the trio in will make them grow significantly taller, bigger. Try a super auto...I'm sure the FF products would respond more so with larger af's.

I've had good results watering+foliar feeding, our yield last year averaged a foot of straight bud using just MG nutes, the FF is just to maximize the potential of them. I'm also running a lot of other non AC strains, so my nutes def have their work cut out for them!

Non AF, I hate these tiny phone keyboards

I've been putting it in a "dehumidity dome" at bight at 35% rh, check out the frost after just 2 nights!

I used it early- like at wk 2. at the end, I use it a few times over 2 wks.
Buds will keep stacking more on. mono potassium phosphate is cheap, I should really just mix my own booster instead of paying big $$ for it..


nice bud 8bit, what is it?
