Ok I posted about how often to feed and I think I scewed up I put a "heavy feeding" which was 4tsp to a gallon. But I am using a 5 gallon bucket with 4 gallons of soil will it be ok cause someone wrote to start with like 25% then 50% and so on. Is this really bad

how old are your plants? if they are in early veg, i would say you may get burnt, pun intended... but if they are a little older, say later veg stage, they you may get away with it.. not to mention that some plants are way more nute sensitive than others and tend to burn a lot easier than others... so it may all depend on your strain... if you are really worried about it, give it a good flush with ph'ed water and leave her alone for awhile..
i was also told to do the 1/4 dosage and build up by 1/4 so that after a month i was at full dose, and i didn't have any prob's this way.

Yeah, that's a fair overdose they got there. I would just watch closely how the plants react. If you see the little tips of your leaves start turning brown, then flush your pots. Flushing is a stress in itself, so better to just see if you can ride it out.
