Best Curled Leaf Tip Ever! Pic

[Rusty Trichome]

Question: How would you propose I add nutes. When I did hydro, I tracked everything anal-retentive style. With dirt, I gave that up and now wish I hadn't.

I've been adding nutes as I described in the T-Form but how SHOULD I do it?

Are you really using all 6 of the nutrients listed? That's two different 3-part series' isn't it? Make sure to use the series formulated for soil. I looked-up GH feeding schedule on thier website, and it's a mess compared to what I'm used to. (Fox Farms schedule) I'm guessing it's a weekly feeding schedule, but it wasn't overtly specific. (plus, I haven't had my coffee yet)

I'm planning on tracking each strain and recording (with pics) the grow process and how it reacts to nutes. (lot of work) but what is your system? Should I add nutes once a week? Every two weeks?

I feed once a week in the winter, twice a week (but half-strength) during the summer. Same weekly nutrient total per manufacturers recommendations.

I really need a good place to start and have not found anything anywhere with specifics on How Much nutes to add...

Never-ever add nutrients directly from the bottle. Always add to properly ph'd water.

On feeding day...I mix-up a 5 gallon batch of nutrient mix.
In my 3 gallon pots, I'll give a tad more than a quart of nutrient mix. 5 gallon pots...about a half gallon of nutrient mix...5 gallon bucket (7 or 8 dry gallons)...about 3 quarts.
Might be a tad more or a tad less, depending on the strain I'm working with at the time, the weather, (ambient heat and humidity)

I need info like: Add 1 quart of full strength GH nutes for every 5 gallons of soil. Then add 3 more quarts of water per 5 gallon of soil to dispurse the nutes. Do this once every 10 days... That's the type of info I really need right now and can't find it. I've searched but haven't found the right "question" I guess because search just comes up empty. Nute cycle? Nute add rate? Nute feeding schedule? Not finding it.
Can you give me a link or do you know the answer to feeding (like they do for hydro)

Quantities listed on bottle are usually a weekly recommendation, added to a gallon of water prior to giving to the ladies. Start with a weekly schedule, and adjust quantity of nutrient mix you add to the pots, not the nutrient:water ratio. The ratio of nutrient solution to add to a gallon of water should remain very constant, and that should not be dicked-with till you know the product.
Feed your ladies once a week. Plain, ph'd water inbetween if necessary.
After you add the nutrient mixture, do not add more water to 'evenly disperse'. Soil is like a sponge, and will do that on it's own. It will also flush-out all the nutrients you just added. Never re-use runoff water.
