Just ordered some Dr. Horby's Big Bud powder to mix in with my nutrients :] BioBizz bloom doesn't give me nowhere enough PK as I'd like for flowering! It's ratio is 2:7:4 :[ Hornby's big bud is 1:9:18, so it should be a lot better! Think I'm gonna go easy on it though, the concentrations of potassium and phosphorus are high.
Note to self: Discontinue use 2 weeks before harvest.

Day 52 update
Things are going great! Only a couple of weeks until harvest now I think :] Had a bit of an issue with underfeeding I think, being too timid on the feeding! I've given her some Big Bud powder to counteract the (what I believe to be) potassium deficiency. I had this on my first grow too, but I wasn't sure what was causing it.
Also decided that considering I'm gonna be chopping her down in 2½ - 3 weeks, I may as well keep the Big Bud up until the final week, where I'll flush her.
Also, with regards to my possible switch to hydroponics, I'll have to see how well this grow goes. My money situation is quite dire right now and I'm not sure if I could afford having to buy from my dealer again due to a low harvest.
I've finished the chopping underneath the canopy. I've left some just underneath it as the LED lights reach quite a bit on the underside, but there are a few little buds left I'm considering chopping off. What do you guys think?

Hey billy nice grow man. You said that you were having pH problems at the start, was you using any Ph - or anything to lower/higher the pH? I used this and it shagged my medium, kills of all the micro nutrients. As you are using biobizz, you have a 'living' soil. i had the same problem with a run off of 5.5* so i flushed, and transplanted a week before flower (photo's), and this seemed to sort the problem straight out. I made the n00b mistake of using this when its only surposed to be used for hyrdoponics. I dont even pH my water at all, i dont even check it (altough i know its 7.2), i just feed it and let the soil buffer it and do its job. And my BidBud bottle says only to be used through weeks 2-4 and then you stop. Im not familair with AN products but i think when you use BidBud you need a finisher aswell?
J Tang uses AN he may know?

Thanks man :] Yeah I did have pH problems, I flushed and fixed them though. I do use pH solutions to increase and decrease the pH of my water as the pH buffer doesn't seem to quite do it for me, I prefer pHing my water manually before I feed it to my plant :]
