Hey Growmie!
Your current lineup sounds solid, especially if your plants have been responding well so far! Here’s a quick breakdown:
🔹 Atami Soil A&B – These can definitely carry you into early flower. They’re balanced and still provide a good nutrient base.
🔹 CalMag – Always a good idea, especially if you’re using RO water or growing under strong LEDs.
🔹 Sea Algae Compost – Great for root health and overall plant vitality – keep it in! 🌿
🔹 Atami Rockzbastic – That’s a solid booster for mid-to-late flower. Adds extra phosphorus and potassium right when the buds start bulking.
If your plants look healthy, you don’t necessarily need to switch your whole feeding line. But you can consider slowly dialing back the nitrogen-heavy base (like A&B) and focus more on bloom-focused PK additives like Rockzbastic as you go deeper into flower.
💡 Just keep an eye on leaf color and overall vigor. If they start to look too dark green or claw a bit, that’s your sign to reduce nitrogen and let bloom nutrients take the lead.
So yep – your plan sounds totally fine! Keep things steady, and your girls should reward you. 🍀💚
Happy flowering! 🌸

Veg for veg, bloom for bloom!
Plants have different requirements for both these phases of life..........that is why they make 2 different product formulas.
Plant looks very overfed in general though.

"bloom" nutes is just marketing.. it may be in different proportions but it's made from the same pool of options.
It does look a little too lush, so keep an eye on that. IF it trends that way, dial back a bit. more than one nutrient molecule can darken a plant, so more info would be needed to discern between the options.. elemental ppm of fertilizer would help... if in soilless/hydro context, it can make diagnosing easy as pie. in soil there are more unknwons due to contribution of amendments.
The only thing i change in flower is N ppm. I drop from 130ish to 110ish in first week then another 20ppm drop to 90ish the following week. If you feed heavier in vege, might need to drop even more than me... or if something else was fed highly, may not need as much later... this stuff is not about last night or last week.. it's a culmination and aggregate over the entire time you've been adding fertilizer. So, YMMV... too many variables. if you don't do things mostly like me, it'll need a different strategy, but if you track this stuff you can learn upper/lower thresholds of where you see problems relative to your nutrient ratios and feeding regimen since it sprouted... plus any soil contributions if you get familiar with one product...

a bit much N but it looks good
i would recommend to use CalMag with VERY careful doses (it could ruin the whole process)
take fert -N and +P and it'll be good
