In soil, since it holds onto nutrients more than hydro medias, you don't have to feed every watering.Giving it some time before feeding again to let it absorb any possible nutrient excess in soil.But nevermind,I feed every watering in soil.You dont need to stop feeding unless you have nutrient excess. Hydro medias ; feed each watering.They are known to make roots get the nutrients quicker and easier than soil.You feed once,plant eats it,then in no time it will want to be fed again because media can't hold onto nutes as good as soil. from my understanding and own experience

What’s worked perfect for me over the last couple of times is 1 day feed 2 day water and keep it going that way . Never had issues like this . Happy growing

am no expert on soil but you need to run water between feeds pending how hungry the plant is could be 1 feed 2 water later on 1 feed 3 water and wet too dry before you feed again

Water Is it bad to make my water ahead of time ? I mixed my nutrients (big bud, formulex, bud candy & molasses) in with the water & have let it sit out for over a day. I heard letting it sit out gets the chlorine out (I put a towel over it though so my cat/other stuff would get in it)

Ph result can anyone read this for me?Can anyone read my ph result? I can not figure out which it is closest to. I purchased this kit as i’m cut to a low budget and trying to figure out if my soil is ok. It’s from drain to waste after just feeding my plant.

Add weight in flowering?Would a black strap molasses brewed tea help my buds add weight? I'm using only Fox Farm Trio and CalMag with reverse osmosis water, pH @6-6.5. While I have atleast 2 weeks left I'd like to get the most weight possible, if there is anything I can do this late in flower that is.

Transplant different soil/brand I am transplanting my plant. The coco gold I started off with, but i’m using canna coco plus professional for the final pot. Should I mix it with what I have left of the original soil (coco gold it has added nutritients i think) or can I just use all coco plus?

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!

When using ffof soil that says it has a pH of 6.3-6.8 is it still necessary to pH my water when using nutrients?This may be a stupid question but w ffof it says the soil is already pH 6.3-6.8 so my question is do I still need to pH my water when using or not using nutrients or is there no need to because the soil is already the correct pH?

Advanced nutrients in soil runoff Advanced nutrients in soil. Hey, so I'm using advice nutrients line (sensi) in biobizz soil (light and all mix 50/50.) Anyway my runoff is always 5.8PH I'm guessing this is due to the PH perfect technology. My soil is buffered to 6.2PH and I always PH up to 6.3/6.4...

Liquid Oxygen Would you all use this in your water when trying to give oxygen to the roots? I’m noticing some really dense, not drying up that quickly soil so it’s making me think that they can’t breath. I don’t know, just making sure every part of the plant is happy & healthy.

Calmag at week 7 after removal of leaves I have a 7 week blueberry auto only fed with sensi grow, bloom and carbloader throughout the recommended periods. Yesterday I removed some leaves as it was way too bushy so considered introducing calmag as two of the early lower leaves have started to yellow.. is this a bad idea?
