So basically in soil your going 6o want to feed with the nutrients once a week . The other feeding you give during the week should only be ph corrected water . This will allow your plant to fully absorb everything in the medium preventing the root zone from becoming what we call "hot" which will eventually lead to nutrient burns. When adding nutrients its important to remember that the dosages written on your bottles will be for fully mature plants . I would advise that you give 1/4 of the recommended strength and work your way up as your plant needs it . Soil retains nutrients really well and so its important to be careful. I hope this information helps you on your journey ! Happy growing !

Honestly I’ve seen people feed over and over and over and not have a problem then I’ve seen people just feed once them do calmg and water for awhile and back and forth it’s really what you can afford and want to do don’t let a bottle or a company tel you what you need. Happy growing Fam 🌱👍🔥

1/2 the recommended dose from the manufacturer. And only feed every 2nd or 3rd watering. You'll get great results. Make sure to pH. I like mine around 6.7 for veg and 6.5 for flower. Good luck 👍

Hi, just go at the website and look for their schedule. In my opinion nutriens are only "sidekicks" of a grow. Key for good growing is a stable soilmix with not to many nutients , but alot of benefica stuff in it. Then Lightning is another Key. Look for the Best you can get for your money. Keeping the right temperature and Humity is another key. ... and yes back to the nutrients , just start with 30-50 percent of the recommended dosage, and look how the plants respond. normally you just need avegetation fertiliser, a bloom fertiliser and a booster for the last 3 weeks. But i wont save money in the soil and the lights. Get some benefical stuff like calcium magnesium silica and molasses. more in the comments

Hey your feeding schedule will depend on what type of soil you have. If you are using a high quality soil then it will have nutrients to feed the plants for about 3 weeks so you wont need any fertilizer until then. And I assume you are using the liquid trio? The soluble trio are flower boosters. Once you start feeding then follow the fox farm soil schedule starting at 1/4 dose and slowly work your way up. Most plants wont need more than 3/4 dose of the trio. The best thing you can do is monitor your leaves every day and learn how to read what they are telling you. Unfortunately you cant rely on a certain schedule because different plants will have different needs. Hope this helps.
