DO AN additives need to be diluted to 1/4-1/2 strength also at first?
AN's base nutes need to be simmered down a notch to 1/4-1/2 strength in the beginning to see how the ladies will react to it. Do all of AN's additives need to be diluted also, so that burning isnt a problem?

yes. also, it depends on your medium alot as far as doseage. but atleast 1/2 is a good start. if soil or coco then your looking at 1/4-1/2 depending, it makes the nutes last longer so thats good too. some nutes like fulvic/humic, ORGANIC-b(not b52) and MET(mother earth tea) can be used at full portions without many issues.soil growing you should always give nutes every other watering, maybe even every third.
if u give me some info on your setup id be happy to help you with dosing scheduals.

yes 1/2 is good. the other to watch for is bud blood and big bud.
I found 1/8 to 1/4 the dose for bud blood (depending on strain) and 1/2 on the big bud. I also have found I don't need to use such a large amount of b-52 and sensizyme like the an feeding chart states. b-52 can be used for transplanting and for stress. sensizyme 1x a month. other additives like humic fulvic, scorpion juice, carbo load are fine at full strength but why pour your $$ down the drain using those outrageous amounts. show me testing that proves you need to use that much for quality and yield and then it is worth it. I have found less is more. highest yields with less feeding (1x a week) and lower ppm. (no more than 1000ppm) A tip: You can use barricade for ph up and f-1 for ph down. good luck, hope you kick ass
