Npk 7-7-7

Has anyone tried a fert with NPK ratio of 7-7-7 and what out come did you have? Also if anyone that is knowledged in this area advise me on a good fert with high Phosphorous as i understand it helps with the flowering stage? Also would be nice to know the NPK ratio of what you are all using? and what results you achieved pictures and diagrams would be nice way to show effect.

I'm currently using half dosage of 10.6-1.6-1.4 Low nutrient fertilizer. What advice would you give to someone in there 8th week of vegging from seeds. I have alternating nodes however i'm not ready to flower as i want them to grow a little bigger. I'm probably going to start flowering on the 12th week for that extra cola but wanted to know what would be a good NPK ratio for flowering and on average how much would you be expecting to water per week for flowering?

Thanks in advance and happy growing!

watering, depends on pot size humidity temps, just too much. no more than twice though. for flower nutes low nitrogen high phophorus, medium pottasium. the p and k should deffinitally be twice as much as n. like 2-6-4 3-9-6 look for things like this dont start flower nutes untill a week or two after the light cycle switch. as for now, if there healthy, just keep it up.

Thank you Very much for help!

No more then twice??? I've been watering once every 8-10days. For veggin i'm using high Nitrogen and low P+K. Got a flowering fert of 8-14-12. Going to see if i can find one with lower Nitrogen concentration. As i was abit worried at first as i didn't know what effect the plant would have with a high Potassiam. but seen that your sayin long as the nitro is low then the fert should be ok for flowering as i think i saw a fert that was 10-20-20. (good or bad idea?)

Thanks for your time!
