Cheers man, it was pretty to look at, hated having to chop it down lol.
My first grow was White widow X bigbudd, special queen #1 and amnesia lemon...all 3 had some for of problem or deficiency, managed to pull about 7oz total I think. The amnesia was best of the bunch, I ran it again the 2nd grow.
That was using a meizhi600 for my first attempt, I've since built a better light after a few months research.

I know that you have to feed more regular in coco, always lift the pots Dude and if they weigh nothing water, that’s the best schedule your gonna get man lol, and get on the bloom nutes dude, what bloom nutes do you own?

I start feeding strainght away only a very light feed for the first couple of feeds though. Gradually increase your nutes very slowly over the first couple of weeks. DO NOT OVERFEED. I say that in capitals because that’s the most common mistake when starting out. I made that mistake myself. Also make sure you don’t feed when you coco is still wet so you get some good root growth. Feel the worthy of the pot after you feed. It will be heavy. Once it’s light it’s time to feed. As they get bigger they will start to feed more often. You don’t want the the coco constantly saturated but you also do want it dry for to long. Just keep an eye on it and you’ll get the hang of it. What nutrients you using?

Skywalker has a really nice lemon pheno. Was caked in crystals too. DNAs golden lemon was terrible lol. Run about 10 packs of them and never found 1 lemon pheno and it was shite. Got dank genetics sour lemonade going at the mo. 5 weeks into flower. No lemon from the ones I’ve smelt at the front of the tent but there fruity.

I'm using a 20-20-20 fertilizer which is why i was asking how often should i because it is a very strong fertilizer.

Generally synthetic nutrients have higher values of NPK. Your 20-20-20 is a fairly standard nutrient level, so not as strong as you may think. A similar organic nutrient solution will have something maybe like 7-3-6.
You are asking the same question on various different threads. You need to start light feeding (I suggest 50% of what the bottle recommends) as many people have already said, and slowly increase. Less is better in most cases. The plants should tell you the rest. Start a grow journal and people will drop in and help.

Just start very lightly feeding then. Like DST said keep posting your progress and people will give you tips and advice along the way.
