Nutes question (I'm a noob)

I'm trying to figure out the amount of nutes I'll need per plant of AN Connisour grow and bloom... for a full grow. Say I'm in Fox Farm ocean forest in 5 gallon smart pots. Under a 1000w HID. Will the 1L get me through for 1/2 the grow? For several grows? I'm clueless... but the few mL per feeding makes me think so... but I'm also thinking about dropping a bunch more beans so I don't waste any.... maybe I'm just worried about "drowning" the roots with the whole runoff thing...help... please?

Ya a bottle of each A n B will last you...

With AN in dirt, I found mixing @ a rate of about 1/2oz per 5gal water for smaller to medium plants, 1oz per 5gal when they is bigger....

You wont need nutes every watering, every other or every 3rd will work. Smart pots DO need to be watered more often, but its worth the tradeoff gettin the extra O2 to the roots...

As long as your grow isnt 20 plants, you should be fine, if ur talking 1-5, yea you got more than one grow...

First off, using synthetic nutrients in SOIL is kind of dumb, so you can just follow some dudes recommendation, or learn how to do it right.

Lots of people use synthetic nutes in soil with great results.
I did with autos outside and they went nuts.

I use the 8/16 Lucas diluted to about 25% strength.
Many use this in a super soil mix during flowering.

lots of people flush and defoliate too, If you want to use them to there max potential, the right medium is very helpful, does it work, yes,
just kind of dumb in my opinion.

It will be my FIRST grow. I need to learn alot, and quite honestly I don't have the time to learn everything. I'm trying to learn a little about everything. And making super soil and teas just isn't in the cards. The PH perfect is just one more thing that I won't need to worry much about. Not saying I won't check it, but hopefully it works as said.

That link is chalk full of info. I was planning on doing a main-line... there was an article on it there.
