RonnieBanswered grow question 4 years ago I answered this twice. I understand that theres other additives. But theres a difference between nutrients and additives. Anything under 1 NPK isnt a nutrient, its an additive. Auto flowers are all different. but I use advanced nutrients grow micro and bloom with sensi cal-mag, jacks bloom booster, Humboldt golden tree and sweet sticky. If the NPK values are like these i use, you should use them at full strength and then some. These nutrients are extremely difficult to over use, if you're watering correctly because of the low NPK values. Jacks bloom booster, on the other hand will burn your plants in a second if you do not mix it correctly. That npk 10-30-20 compare that to ANs 4-0-1 and you see the differences. I have found that most auto flowers are heavy feeders. Because they're growing so fast and expending energy. At the end of the day it boils down to what you are happy with. I personally prefer pushing my plants hard, but not abusing them. I was taught to increase nutrients until the plant shows some stress, then back off 10%
