To make it simple get yourself some fox farm grow big and fox farm I'm tiger bloom. Give grow big durring veg and tiger bloom durring flower start around week 2 of seedling with 1 or 2ml per gallon slowly increasing. You can use any liquid fertilizer regiment with a part a and part b most other brands should be very similar to fox farm. You may need some cal mag durring flower but ypu don't absolutely need it. You can always top dress you pot with fresh soil durring mod flower and that should add some calcium that's just if your tring rmto keep it easy. When you decide to do more advanced growing check out fertilizer regimens that' have several diff nutes and have schedule to

lol i'm sorry but there is dangerously wrong info below.. adding .2g of anything does not typically result in a particular ppm. that entirely depends on the concentration of any nutrient molecule invovled.. this varies by product all the time. Hydrobuddy is a free app. you can track the ppms of what you feed or enter in a target level for each and info off your gauranteed labels and it'll give you target dosing measurements. It's a good idea to track this stuff. Makes diagnosing problems much easier when you know upper and lower thresholds that historically cause problems. Trial and error shuold lead to a formula that works on 95-99% of plants. Shitty formulas and shitty fertilization practices give the impression that these plants are picky. they are not.

Your RH is spiking way too high. I'd get a dehumidifier before you start to run into WPM issues and such. Keep it to 65% or less, and even better, adjust it relative to a proper resulting VPD for current stage of life. nutes... It's not about your preference... is the plant healthy? is it developing a deficiency? Is it developing a toxicity? You should try to keep it healthy and happy. That means what you are providing is being used by the plant at a suitable rate not to cause problems. You typically don't need to give as high of concentration of nutes. Some nutes enter mostly through diffusion... if it can traverse the roots, it enters. Some nutes, like p and k, rely significatnly on active transport. The plant has some sort of feedback system that controls a significant portion of p/k intake. It is selective about it. this means you simply need to maintain a critical level of nutes around the roots and theplant will take care of the rest. No need to play mad scientist with the fertilizer formual. consistent is better than fluctuating. At the very end, if you have a strong canopy, you can withold nutes if you want to be lazy... as long as the plant can cannibalize itself without killing off all the leaves before it finishes. This does not in any way impact flavor of flower. It probably has some net-negative impact that is tiny enough not to notice. law of conservation of mass... the plant cannot manifest mass from nothing, it needs co2 and nutrients to build anything -- wehther it be new cells or ripening. Both are 'growth.'

High Medes, When you want to provide the plant with nutrients quickly then you need to use liquid nutrients in pH water. You need a basic flower nutrient, PK booster and Cal-Mag supplement. These are all the necessary nutrients for the final phase. Happy Growing Buddy! 💚

I don't understand what you mean But, generally you go by PPM not ml/l. You're using powders. So, when I used them. Generally .2 of a gram adds 150-200ppm to 1L of water. You're coming into the flower phase. So, idk how You're giving your nutrients. But, grow you don't give if You're using it. Just short/long flowering. With pk booster during fattening and even high pk feeds in ripening lowering the bloom as it progresses. If you are using soil. 6.3ph is TOO low..minium 6.5 but optimally 6.7 or around that range is better.
