Hi all. I'm fairly new to pollen chucking in general but have done it two times now. Currently with a selfed Northern Lights X bigbud auto from World of Seeds (CS does work!).

In both grows the seeds seemed to develop slowly. I only pollinate one lower branch so originally I thought it was just a matter of lighting but now I am wondering if I need to adjust my nutes to aid the plant in seed production.

I use General Hydroponics 3 part flora series at 1/3 strength. I have always swore by this ratio as it produces great product for my needs (I grow for myself only, one plant at a time, and recently switched from LED to one 250 watt hps for flowering). Can anyone tell me if I should just keep with the 1-2-3 suggested ratio as listed on the bottle or should I tweak up the nitrogen, say 2-2-3?

Thanks in advance!
 
I know nothing about seed making dude ...but I have become a weed nerd fan (thx KTD!) & subcool from TGA Genetics says that seed production uses a crazy amount of energy & its best to keep feeding for around a month while the seeds mature or they may not get there . Not sure how you would apply that to DWC or just 1 seeded branch ? , carry on bloom & boosters for a while maybe :Sharing One:
 
Thanks DWCocha! Just as a point to experiment with I decided to stick with the normal recommended ratio on the bottle. The plant seems to be responding very well so my fingers are crossed
