Earth Juice Nutrients in Fox Farms Soil

Anyone have any good idea of a schedule I should follow? I see some schedules starting nutrients at week 1, I see other people recommending to let the plants use the nutrients found in the soil before starting. I'm trying to find out what's best for me without relying on guessing. Thanks.

The grow will be 4 plants (not feminized) in a 3x3 under a Mars II 900.

I personally feel best letting the nutrients come from the soil for at least the first few weeks. Unless your using a mix without nutes, adding feed may burn the plants early on. Do you have an idea of what soil you are going to start with?

Sorry I should have specified, they are currently at Day 1 in Fox Farms Ocean Soil. So far just been watering using ph 6.5

I havent used fox farms and I'm not too sure what's in it. I like to start feeding with a 1/4 - 1/2 the recommended dose between weeks 2 - 4, and increase/decrease from there.

First off ffof soil buffers ph by itself so there's no need to ph your water .....secondly there's enough food in that soil not to have to add any for several weeks ....
