I use Alaska fish fert 5-1-1. 5ml per gallon until flower then hit with a bit of Epsom salts first 2 weeks then just molasses. Soil is pro mix with ph up lime amended with a cup of bone and blood meal.
 
The soil I'm going to use has nutes in it already will that still be OK for them or should I use soil with no nutes at all
 
OK I will get something different to use can u recommend anything? I've got some canna coco professional plus will that be OK to use this is my first grow I've done some research just thought I would ask a few questions on here as u guys seem to know what your doing

I don't really use a bunch of nutes with autos just the Alaska fish 5-1-1 starting when first set of leaves are mature like 1.5 weeks from seed. Then I just use molasses after flowering begins with maybe a hit or 2 of Epsom salts for balance. The biggest thing is watching ph in runoff to keep things right. Any issues I've had have been related to ph going off. By adding in some lime to my soil mix I've been good to go I only check runoff at flower and then mid way through flower.

Try to stay simple and take notes. I filled 6 note books up over the years and still go back to them lol. Hope I helped ya get started my way works for me but may not work for others of course. There's a ton of ways to grow and a lot of opinions on it.

Top dress once a week water it in. 2 part. They make a flower finish as well. Its all natural as you can see in the ingredients. Great product. Its not Chelated but it is available very quickly to the plant. On plants with roots I sprinkle some in the hole at transplant. I haven't had any problems Burning plants. Give it a shot you'll grow dank with it. Also check out my buddies company.

Seriously though, here's a good starting point.

There really are no best nutrients. I prefer organic nutes, but some people prefer chemical nutes. I'm reusing my soil, so I try to keep it salt and chemical free.

I have no problem with people using chemicals. They're fast acting, but like I said I'm trying to take care of the living soil.
