 Switching Nutes Mid-Grow

Would it be damaging to the plants if I switched the nutes in the middles of flowering? I have 20L of Dutchmaster Gold ready to roll, and my plants are currently eating the Recipe for Success. I'll be running out of the Technaflora nutes soon, and would rather use the Dutchmaster anyways. would it be a bad idea? i can't imagine it would be harmful, but i could be wrong....

i don't have much experience growing, but i don't see why it would be a prob. as long as it has the proper N-P-K for the flowering cycle. that's just my oppinion.

it's written right here.

that's how i feel. obviously, each nute will have what the plant needs, and i'm pretty sure my plants don't know how to read the labels on my nute bottles....maybe they won't even know the difference

The big question is do you have enough Techaflora to finish the current grow? If so then I wouldn't recommend whiching at thsi point. In alot of cases plants won't like the which mid grow.

well, here's the deal....I have enough nutes left to finish these 4 plants. I have 4 more vegging in a completely separate hydro system, these 4 are getting the Dutchmaster right now.....eventually, when i'm ready to flower these other 4 plants, i'll have to transplant them into my "flowering system". My Sour Grapes will still be flowering at that point...so, one set of plants will have to endure a nute switch. should i just finish this flower cycle with the Technaflora?

Would it be possible to tie the plants vegging down and keep them in veg until you finish the current flowering plants? If so I recommend doing it that way. So there is no switching of the nutes.
I'm not familiar with Sour Grape, how long does it flower for?

ya know, my vegging plants that are receiving Dutchmaster have only been receiving it for a week. i suppose i could just switch it over to Technaflora before i get too far into veg....i think this is what i'll do....
