How often should nutrients be added ?

[trubadour]

HI. I´ve tried to look for info concerning how often to add nutrients, and still have not found any concrete answer. Should nutrients be added every watering ?

thanks in advance..

no every other watering at most you can see wean your plant wants more food mine need it about every 7-10 days

whats up man, tell me what your working with so i can help you. Like what strain are you growing how many and what size container's are they in/ Also do you already have some nutes and your asking about them or are you wanting to know what type of nutes are recommended?

Every other water and start with low dose i start nutes 30 days in and never have the prob i read about or see!!!

I add nutes every watering., until the last 3 weeks once the calyxes explode.

i think most people have there own way and whatever works for them the 2 plants in the pics are waterd 4 days outa 7 with a litre of water mixed with 2ml of bio-bizz grow, everytime i water them i also giv nutes.

now im a newb well this is my 3rd grow and ive read many many threads so i no that many will say im watering too much and giving them too much nutes???

but look at the pics i dont think the plants are complaining lol

strain is DP blueberry and my light is a hps 250 which i have very close to the plants.

I use nutes (1 tsp of FF GrowBig, 1 tsp of CalMag {and 2-4 tsp of AN BigBud per gallon of water for the last 3 weeks of veg and the first 4 weeks of flowering}) every other watering. But I watch VERY closely for any signs of nute burn. When in doubt, always remember --- It is MUCH better to under water/nute than to over-do it. No nutes are better than burning your plants up.

Good luck!!!!!

Thanks for all your response.
I am growing northern lights, and Jackflash.
The container that they are grown in are 18 L, but only 3/4th are filled.
I usually give about 1 liter water in each, as when given only some of the water will run through,, is this wrong ?
I give the plants roughly the same concentration of nutrients, that is Biobizz line grow, and Alg-A-mic, half the amount suggested. One of the plants have been showing "rust" marks (northern light). Picture below. Why does only one of the plants show this when all the plants have been given the same. And the marks are still only on 2 leafs of whole plant. I started I thread asking for help, but still no response (https://www.rollitup.org/marijuana-plant-problems/301090-what-can-causing-these-marks.html#post3765637).

Any reply will be appreciated. thanks.

I start feeding a week in, at 4 weeks they're getting a full dose of veg nutrients.

I feed every time I water.

trubadour, when you water water until you see 10% or so runoff, make sure the pot is fully soaked.

The rust marks are a sign of calcium/magnesium deficiency. Get some cal/mag to fix it.

I do small amounts of nutes only use up to 3/4 whats recommened on the fox farm line up veg and flower. Water once a week and nute once a week it works for me cause i never over nute or over water the plant they are always strong and green as can be. Take a look at my albums for proof. It also depends on your pot size. If its a 5 gallon pot i use 4 cups twice a week once with water once with nutes i never had root rot or not much run off so i know the plants are using it all and if they look thirsty another time just water with mollasses just for the carbs this can be done in all of the plants life cycle. (sometimes it depends on the light also i think the hotter it is the drier they get i use t-5 for flowering and the heat is not bad at all.

As your name says you do need some help.

When you do water fully soak the pot, until there is 10% runoff. Water only when the soil has dried.
There is no exact amount of water.

Don't give out advice if you don't know what you are talking about...

I have biobizz and bio bloom. I've been told to feed everyday. One cap full in a big black 5gallons bucket. Then feed/water. Is that right?
