Hi there!
When growing AFs in soil, I start feeding fish emulsion + liquid kelp at week 2, gradually increasing nute concentration to reach full strength by week 4 more or less (ie. week2 1/4, week3 1/2, week4+ full strength) until week 6 is done (about 3 weeks into flower). Then I stop giving fish emulsion, feed liquid kelp + molasses (1tsp/gal) during week 7, and flush until the end (at least 2 weeks, if not 3). I often use an enzyme product during feedings.
In other words, I do feed N until early flower, and have found no negative effects by doing so. I like them as vigorous (ie. big, branchy) as possible before they start budding so I may be pushing them a bit but I'm quite satisfied with the results.

Hi man, I've always used biobizz and for autos I do the following.

This depends on your method.. if you plan to transplant when they show sex, or if for example you have feminised seeds and you start them in their final pots.

I transplant mine.. but I'm sure others will chip in to help you out for the second option.

I start them in biobizz light - I find the all-mix soil strength seems to vary.. it will stunt your autos if it is too strong.. which is a huge no no as unlike 12/12 strains which would recover given time autos have precious little veg time generally so I don't think it's worth the risk.

the light mix should contain enough N to get your plants going and happy for about 2 weeks, if they sex at two weeks and you pot them up into allmix they will be fine, if they take longer to sex i'd start giving them grow nutes in small doses and build up from there.

I think they design the biobizz nutes to give grow all the way through flowering, which I do.

It depends on a few factors though... what strain? I've found some autos eat these organic nutes once they're established.

Also pot size... the less soil.. the less nutrients available and vica versa

Lighting... I saw a big step up in nutrient intake during flowering when i moved from cfl to hps.

If i've spouted any BS here someone feel free to say..

thanks for the reply dudes,i think im just gonna try and see what they respond well to.

this text"- using nutrients intended for use in the vegetative period. If you're using these, the plant will not get the necessary nutrients to start producing flowers. Solution: switch to flowering nutrients immediately." i found a seedshop online.so i might be on the right track.
wish me good luck and god speed to yàll

If you're planning on using biobizz nutes.. I just copied this from their site

' Why do you give Bio-Grow in the bloom/flowering phase??

That is a good question. Bio-Grow contains a lot of sugars and vitamins B, C and E. When plants start to flower they are using a lot of their vitamins and sugars. If those vitamins and sugars are not replaced the plant can stress out or even die. Bio-Grow was not only developed

as a growth and soil activator but also as a plant tonic in flowering phase. That is why we recommend using Bio-Grow in bloom/flowering phase.'

good luck either way

I use a tea made with nettles and urine -you just pick a shitload of nettles and let them lie in water until they ferment, every now and then you take a leak in it! Smells like shit but it´s great for veg.

lol,if i would go for that the smell would be blamed on the dog

I like stinky organic nutes they give the buds a better flavor than chemicals. Dead animals and feces have always given me excellent results. Right now I am using composted poultry litter NPK 4-2-2, bat guano NPK 0-10-0, liquid kelp NPK 0-0-1 and epsom salt if I see signs of magnesium deficiency.

Start feeding your plants when the codyledons begin to turn yellow
