 Which fertilizers to use

I'm thinking I should use my 24-8-16 fertilizer for my plants during vegetative growth and switch over to a 15-30-15 when the plants begin to flower. Is this a good idea or should I buy some different fertilizer?

the 24-8-16 ratios are little off for what you want for cannabis vegetative growth. something along a 2 1 1 ratio is good for veg. So that would be a 3 1 2 ratio. Will still work, but be careful w a nutrient that hot and be sure to dilute properly. Youre 15-30-15 should be good for flower. A 1 2 2 or 1 2 1 ratio is great. Like I said though, dilute properly!

Idk but im personally happy with my blue planet 2 part nutrients. blue planets a relatively new company, but they clearly put a shitload of work into making simple and top quality nutrient lines. They seem to know what they are doing.
really you could use any generic plant food and it will be fine as long as you don't over feed. It depends how much control you want over everything I guess.

Nice. Yea I like blue planet. I really think that guy sought out to make the best bottled nutrients with a lot of research/high quality ingredients, and if it's not the best, it's certainly still high quality. They encourage comparison photos.
oh btw after a lot of comparing ingredients I figured out that their organic bottled nutrients have the widest spectrum of real organic ingredients, where as other organic nutrient lines ingredients are limited, focus on mostly sea life/guano etc, or they split the ingredients into like 10 products. Blue planets organic line actually has all the ingredients in The Revs TLO cannabis recipes, which is cool.
Well whatever you end up getting OP just don't get miracle grow realted products!!! not because its bad for cannabis, but because Monsanto owns miracle grow and Monsanto is a genuinely EVIL corporation. Monsanto is actually openly seeking to control the cannabis market 100% and they invest billions into something fucked up called RNA interference technology which could potentially mean that one day cannabis will no longer produce viable seeds and the only strains you can grow will have Monsanto genetics in them. Sound far fetched maybe, but they've already done it with soy beans/corn/other shit, and I can see how they could do it with cannabis if they have the right biotechnology. If we were planning to invade another planet and kill it's inhabitants I'd say we should turn to Monsanto to figure out how to do it without an army.
