I have done a few batches for auto flower now using all purpose 20/20/20 but i find that i cant give them as much as id like or they burn and that it also causes the smoke to be harsher then it should be for the strain. Now i do not give them the nuts withing a few weeks of them finishing to help with the taste but it did not help and jsut stunted there grow due to the low nutrients in the soil.
Side note i use 20 20 20 about 1 time per week.
Any advice and input welcomed thx in advance guys.

How bout giving them as much as "they" like instead ?

causes the smoke to be harsher then it should be for the strain.
When will this nonsense end ? Final product is about how they are dried and cured, has nothing to with how they were fed

If you are growing in a pot/container then a 20-10-20 would be better (I use Jack's Citrus FeED) If growing in the ground a 20-20-20 is just fine you just need to use less

Ill look for the 20 10 20 as they are currently in about a 30L pot.
Also i am sorry but i dont understand the cashews or peanuts reference.

gotta have balanced nuts...this is why I always go for "fancy mixed nuts"..

But seriously..
Autos take the same feed as their photosensitive brethrun,ruderalis imparts a much smaller root mass so your feed concentration need to be less.This is a good thing...you can feed them less.Try to stay around 1-1.2. EC for a full flowering plant.This has been pretty much the sweet spot for autos for me.
