How much Alaskan fish emulsion to give my plants.

I have 4 Northern light plants that are 4 weeks old. some of the bottom leaves are turning a shade yellow. I have 3 of them in Miricale grow soil with 40% perlite. Its the soil with the 3 month nutes and I have one in Foxfarm Ocean Forest with 40% perlite. I was wondering how much fish emulsion I should give them per gallon. On the bottle it says it will not burn them. The plants are not ver big yet. light 6 or 8 inches.Thanks

Yep. I have the simplest routine. spend the least. have the best buds that taste and smell the incredible. use fish emulsion when needed. it has vitamins and minerals that you need so don't buy stuff that you don't need. and the reduce the amount of fish emulsion in bloom and use the morbloom counter part to AFF. Supplement with cal mag when needed and use enzyme to break down organics quicker. there is a hack for everything and this is one of them. I highly recommend especially for everybody but beginners will benefit from slow release organics. and i order my shit from homedepot.com and it kills on prices too. order early in case they screw up or have to back order.

FIRST OF ALL: Post some pics for optimal responses at help

I wouldn't add too much maybe 1/4-1/2 the strength the bottle says. Miracle grow is already fertilized and works fine without any supplemental nutrients for any first time use, even though you added 40% sterilite, it's still loaded with pre-made nutrients.

ALSO don't trip that your plant's lower leaves are turning yellow, it's suppose to happen. Even at 4 weeks old. Some pics would really help.

1 TBSP per gallon of water

Leaves aren't supposed to turn yellow fall off just because you're 4 weeks into flowering. Flowering doesn't cause leaves to turn yellow and fall off.
