Depends on the soil. Do you use fertilized soil?

I start with half strength fox farm around this time. Quarter strength if you are very worried as others have mentioned.

You can start feeding your plants after the first 14 with a light dose of nutrients ph to specs . Hope that helps and good luck to you

You can start the nutrients but, at the beginning, 1/4 of the recommended dose, then gradually increase according to the reaction of the plant. Good culture ✌️

Confused about PPM and pre-amended soil and knowing which ppm to sart feeding.
What should my ppm be when I began to start feeding nutrients? My soil has nutrients pre-amended for the first 3 weeks, it's been three weeks and it's 1800 (my tap water is 200). That seems pretty high for 3 weeks after the plants have been in the soil. Thanks!

Ph problems
My tap waters ph is incredibly high. Even when I add pH down & biobuzz nutrients & leave it for 24 hours, it continues to rise, not fall. Would ph perfect work for me with autoflowers ?

Math check.
Making my own bloom booster, aiming for a 0-10-10 ratio. I use powders and know that 1 tsp = 5ml. If make up a 1 litre solution, to achieve 0-10-10 would that mean 980ml of water 2 tsp of mono-ammonium phosphate 2 tsp of potassium sulphate?

I added mycorrhiza to the coco coir from a local store. It turned out that there is slow release fertilizers in it. Was not indicated on the packaging.
Please Help! First time after watering with 5.7pH 400ppm drainage water was 6.7pH and 800ppm. I flushed her to 400ppm. Yesterday was the second watering (450ppm, 5.7pH) and drain was 700ppm 6.7pH. I flushed her to 460ppm (1.5l of water), but pH still 6.6 How to fix it?

Low EC in Runoff
If the EC levels of the runoff are consistently lower than what I'm putting in, do I need to raise the EC levels? I've read that this means my plants are feeding well and can do with more, but I wanted to make sure first. Thanks.

Burnt plants a bit with nutes for growing. When to start giving them nutes for blooming? (autoflowers)
I probably burnt my plants by giving them too much nutes for growing. (plagron alga grow) Stopped giving the nutes for a week, but they're still showing yellow tips. When would It be okay to start giving them nutes for the blooming phase? (plagron alga bloom)
