Wow I get to be the first to post a thread in this section!

Question is, I just got some canna pk 13/14 and I'm wondering how often do I use it? I'm in week 7 of flowering under a 250w red cfl. Im not sure what plant it is but I reckon I got another 4-6 Weeks left of flowering. There Are some pics of it in my profile if anyones intresred

Thanks

normally you would use pk13/14 for a whole week, it tightens the buds up, use a bloom i,e bud xl after using the pk13/14.

pk 13 14 can be used as a pk spike in the 3rd week of flowering aswell as how canna says to use it 3 weeks before harvest.

if you are growing in soil then do not feed it anything ''everyday''.

How often should I feed it then?

in soil the plants should be fed every 2-3 days(let the soil almost dry out before watering)

i always use to give mine a feed(with nutes) then just P.H'd water then a feed then just water,ect,ect
(i'd rather under-feed then over-feed)

i would suggest every water for 1 week approx 3-4 weeks before harvest is due, i use the autopots so just plop the required amount in the res for 1 week which is usually week 4-5 of flower.

on the pk 13 14 bottle it says use 2-3 weks before harvest but on the canna grow guide it says to be used in the second week of flowering. I've always used mine in the second week of flowering with great results because this is when your plants will need phosporus the most. GL growing

the 2nd an 3rd week is more of a spike of pk to get them going not when they need it most, the plants needs and wants more p an k 3 -2 weeks before harvest

id say it was best to use it a few times in flower, especially if thats all u have got

Well I only just got the stuff, I'm in wk 7 flower the first time I used it I gave the plant a good drink an now I'm feeding it every other day, one feed with canna the next plain water. Gona carry on for another week or so an see how it does. It seems to be liking it atm. Its the only nutes she's had throughout the grow.

so your giving them 1.5 ml a litre thats what they say to add to a full nutrient tank, so you could probably double up on it, if your using nothing else. :)

im going with the 3 weeks from harvest and i also think the reason that pk has always confused people is because of the flowering stage some people dont count the 1-2 week after flipping there lights and some people do. The first 1-2 weeks of 12/12 is not actual flowering time this is when plants are changing to flower so dont count these 2 weeks and then we start to get somewere 5th week of flower thus actually being the 6-7ths week of flower because these people arnt counting the pre flowering stage and 3 weeks from harvest is also around the 5-6th week of flower when working from a strain that flowers in 8-9 weeks, to give pk at the correct time will be slightly different for all as ive always been led to belive tht pk should be given for a week the week the plant has its 2nd growth spurt.
just my 2 pennys worth :)

sounds right to me! it baffled me and still does a little because it does say on the canna guide during 3rd week of 12/12 but everyone seems to go in the 5th week. first time i did it i used full dose week 3 and half dose week 5 and that seemed to work great, im gonna give it a try the other way around this time

Just a quick question, see when using pk13/14 do you still use your normal base nutes at the same dosage???? I'm growing in a aqua farm and start my 5th week of flowering my blueberry bush today, I do a complete rez change every week and top up in-between, thanks for any help given, :)

here's what i do ;
flip into 12/12, wait til pistols show on plants to start my 'flowering period'
week1) a and b
week2) a and b
week3) a and b
week4) pk13/14 and small amount of a and b
week5) quick flush by feeding of ph'd water twice then budxl mix with a and b
week6) budxl a and b
week7) budxl a and b
week8) half week of budxl and a and b then flush
week9) cut down once 7th day has come since flush.

prioritise pk13/14 over a and b.

i.e if you were mixing 10litres of nutes and bottle says add 15ml per 10l you put the 15ml in and check e.c, then you would add canna a and b until you reach the desired e.c level.
