Hi, my autoflowers are 6 weeks from sprout. I've noticed they are really thirsty, drinking about 1 1/2gallons every 2days right now. I am growing in FFOF, adding cal-mag, big bloom and tiger bloom every other watering.
My temps are around 80 most of the day, with night around 68-72. RH is usually steady 58 percent lately.
I am a complete newbie, looking for advice should I be doing anything different? Am I on target? Here is a couple pics : 2 OG Kush autoflower, 1 is a mute, that decided to go crazy on me. These 2 plants are taking up my 3x3. Advice welcomed, I want to finish strong

Looking good! Right on track.
I’d keep some Epsom salts on hand. In fact I’d give one does of 1tsp per gal now and then again around week 8.
Also watch those bottom leaves. Some strains especially leafy ones like more N than most bloom feeds give. There should be N in your calmag but if it’s not enough the bottom leaves will yellow.
In this case add 25% grow feed to give more nitrogen. So 25:75 grow/bloom.
In fact I find a sweet spot is 50:50 mid/late flower with added P/K but that’s just my setup.
I will add grow back to the regimen, I'm using foxfarms line of nutes. Also using bush doctor for the cal-mag. Help me with the math here, I've never done this. So if I'm using ( per gallon) 1/2 tsp cal-mag, 1 teaspoon bg bloom, and 1 teaspoon tiger bloom, should I add 1/4 teaspoon of grow?
Can they take even more? I don't want them to be hungry, nor do I want to overdo it, I'm also feeding every other watering. Watering now every 2 days, 5 gallon air pots. They have had a lot of fan action on them since they were babies.
