Get a general bloom fertilizer. Anything but miracle grow. Try to get something that says all organic nutes. Get a good balanced fertilizer like 9-9-16.

1 week into flowering you should be using Fox Farm's Tiger Bloom, Open Sesame, and the BB that you’re already using.

They have a feeding schedual for hydro as well.

Pictures of this would help. Are you sure it's a nitrogen def? Once plants are put into flower, you generally cut nitrogen and boost phosphorous to give the plant what it needs for the bud cycle. Generally, some leaves will yellow or die, but this is later in the cycle as things are winding up. You didn't post any ph numbers, so I suppose your ph could have got out of whack and you could have locked out nitrogen at the tail end of veg.

Check the ph of your runoff next water/feed to make sure you're not up against a ph issue. Lockout of phosphorous could cause severe problems in the flowering stage.

Do they make ph up/down for siol?

Your best bet would be to thoroughly flush your soil with plain water. Then ph balance your nute mix from now on.

^ Exactly right.

Yes, do a flush! And it seems know one mentioned how much water you need... so I will. lol

Use 3 times as much water as your pot size. (ex. for a 3gal pot... flush with 9gl of water). Be sure the water used is the correct pH.
