What should I feed my girls during flower?

I have 6 plants outdoors and I have been giving them strictly water. They are about 1 1/2 weeks into flower. Is there anything I can feed them to boost there growth at this point? They aren't very big so I am not expecting spectacular results, but I am just wondering if there is much I can do to increase my yield some.

After the pre-flower stretch which I assume your plants already went through, you want to lower the nitrogen. Now is when you want to introduce nutrients with a high Phosphorous an Potassium level, or higher P and K numbers on the N-P-K rating. Usually any "bloom" nutrient has a higher P and K value and will work good.

I was using FoxFarm's Grow Big for veg outdoors (6-4-4 NPK). I cut that off when flowering started and now I'm using FoxFarm's "Organic" Big Bloom (0.01-0.3-0.7) and small ammounts of FF Tiger Bloom (2-8-4).
....I also flush for a week or 2 before harvest and use nothing but water and hope for sun, hope that helps :)

Thx marcellas

Thx marcellas

much appreciated. I am assuming big bloom and tiger bloom are mixed with water? And how much should I purchase? Will one jug of each be enough?

I have a quart of FF's Grow Big, Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom. Their all lasting through the season with left overs. Grow Big's running low though..

Read the directions on the bottle, it can be anywhere from a teaspoon to 3 tablespoons per gallon of water, depending on which nute your mixing with water

1.5 weeks into flower is still early. You can't get them taller as the stretch is probably coming to an end, but put them in ideal conditions and give them plenty of light and they can reward you with fat ass buds

Unless you're organic, Miracle Gro 15-30-15 or Peters 10-50-10 are cheap, simple and very effective, outdoors.
Give 'em a proper flush, and you'll be good to go!

Those types of fertilizers are going to kill much of the beneficial life in your soil. I would suggest using something organic.
