I'm currently watering my plants daily with 1 liter of water and adding 5ml of TerraBloom according to the feeding schedule. If I use a 20-liter pot for the next grow and water with 2 liters daily, would I then add 10ml of fertilizer? According to the schedule, you use 50ml for 10 liters of water.

Yeah, but I don't know why you want such a huge pot. I have 68cm with 8 liters, and with 11 liters, I get to a good 100cm (which is way too high, I don't even have that much light). There's also a chart that shows which pot is suitable for which size. It's more of a waste. And it's always calculated per liter, but she drinks relatively the same amount. A bigger pot means less frequent watering, but it's also a bit trickier to hit the sweet spot—not too dry outside and not too wet inside. But with a little experimenting and measuring weight, you can figure out when to top up. I've had good results so far with light feeding for autos, so half of what normal ones need. Sure, you can also pump them up, but size isn't everything.

I wouldn't fertilize with double the amount right away, but rather 1.5 times. It also depends on the soil, etc. I recommend the Tom Tomato from GUSTA Garden; I have a direct comparison with several plants, and they grow significantly better because they are watered from the bottom.

The mixing is fine - though you may need to adjust based on how the plant grows -- time will tell. Every garden has slightly different variables that will impact this. You aren't watering with good habits. Stop trying to decide how much to give. you'll only end up with buildup or worse in your substrate. Just as above, numerous variables, how it is constituted, will impact how much water yo need to give along with how long you wait between irrigations. So, you water until the entire thing is wet - a little runoff is fine but you can minimize that waste, but always make sure entire substrate gets wet. Then, let top 1" dry (or so). Repeat. Don't stray from that. You will learn how much water you need in hindsight. If you water at same dryback / loss of weight, then it will require a similar volume each time so you don't waste mixed fertilzer etc. you don't make these choices. the water capacity of the substrate and the amount of dryback you have determines how much water is needed. if you buy the same products or make your substrate teh same way, you'll know the volume in the future too, but first you have to learn it from doing.

Exactly! But remember, just because the pot is bigger doesn't mean you have to water more; it always depends on the size of the plant. The amount of nutrients is always linked to the amount of water and can be easily calculated. Good luck with your grow (:
