Anyone using strive,quic question? Are you useing all the way through flowering up tell the last couple weeks part A&B or do you switch to something different, or cut part B out to lower the nitrogen? Doing my first full fun with after switching to it and not rell sure on it.
I’m using strive too and from everything I’ve read you run it all the way through. I might start adding some beastie blooms too and had to add some calmag once. Overall happy with the simplicity of strive and the results so far! I used fox farms dirty dozen my first grow but felt it was a little harsh on the plants

The numbers don’t matter as much as the ratio. As long as nitrogen is 2 or less and I keep my p and k above 8-10 I find it to be OK in flower. So a 2-10-10 would be fine and if I had a 2-4-4 I would add a p-k booster to help the ratio out. The plant still needs nitrogen just in a massively smaller role. This is my understanding of how it works per Dr Bruce Bugbee, and it hasn’t led to any issues that I know of during flower. Maybe someone who understands the science of nutrition can chime in. But that’s my experience with both organic and synthetic nutes.
