Newb, question abot nutes

[plato]

Hi I tried searching for the answer.
I am using Advanced Nutrients 3 part base
It only has instructions for hydro. It says 4ml/liter during each week
So, do i feed at this strength in soil? Do i feed at this strength only once a week, or spread it throughout the week? Any help would be appreciated.
Btw, i have no ppm meter. I have ph meter

what soil mix u using? sometimes nute programs are too concentrated or hot as recommended. its good if ur unfamiliar with ur nutes or how ur strains respond to them to start out at 1/4-1/2 strength, then work ur way up. good luck!

I would start with less like 25% and see how the plant responds to that feeding. If there is still vigorous growth maybe keep going up till you get to about 50%. Even in hydro I would only mix at about 75% of what was on the bottle. Less is better as depending on your soil it will already have lots of nutes in it for the plants to use.

Am using fox farm ocean forest with 20% perlite added
Today, its been about 3 weeks i think, i gave initial feeding at 25%
All plants have a couple leaves yellowing, so I think I was developing a deficiency

 

[plato]

Also, how frequently do i feed?
One a week right? Or should i use ppm meter(not very precise)

Could you upload any pics of the leaves?

Are the yellow leaves towards the bottom or is it on the new growth?

 

[plato]

It is the bottom leaves. Mostly the ones that are just one jagged leaf. ( not cotelydons )
I saw one with a spot, about midway up one plant.
They are looking much better today though
I cant get pics to upload now. But its mostly the edges turning yellow( usually moreso the tip first) bur i noticed one had little pale spots all over one of the newer leaves.
I get 110,00 ft candle hrs of light daily with a 4 bulb 2ft t5ho. temp stays 84-86, which I am working on lowering. And humidity ranges 30-50, occasionally it'll read a high or 55%.
Fertility meter(non specialized, calibrated for "ideal" being in range of 250-900 ppm), reads low on ideal so ~ 300ppm

This forum is not android friendly.
The upload function n work-ey.
I think they are getting better tho, i fed twice at 25% this week. AN finlly responded and said I can feed full strength each time.That seems a little hot, as I had mature plants going at 50% every feeding just before this. They showed NO deficiency and were healthy, till the police ripped them out 1st week of bloom.
So this is my second round in veg
