Nutrient and watering schedule ratio for Blue Cheese

Strain: Blue Cheese, Regular; 4 plants total; 11l individual pots in soil

Indoor grow; 9 weeks old from germination

Just flipped to flower today so now using nutrients:

Plagron terra bloom: 5ml/1l water; Plagron power roots 1ml/1l water, Bigger flowers RQS 0.5ml/1l water

I make a batch of 10l water while adjusting the nutrients and I feed once a week. So i divide the 10l water/nutrients among the 4 plants (about 2.5l per plant) but i think this must not be enough nutrients for each plant. After feeding, I get some runoff, so I usually give the plants another 2 liters of plain water a few days later. They are very thirsty and bushy with a strong, healthy root system. I don’t give more during feeding because 10l is the max size of my water can.

Does 2.5l seem like a reasonable about of water/nutrients for each plant?

Welcome to the community. Some pics would help with giving advice. We need to see what the plant looks like for nutrient advice. As long as you follow the feeding charts you should be good to go. I alternative between feeding and watering with a day in between. So I feed on Monday and Friday, and water Wednesday and Saturday, or Sunday. Happy growing

Thanks for the response. I’m wondering if the amount of nutrients I’m giving is too little. My plants get 2.5 liters of water and nutrients once a week, so I’m thinking if I give them more water with nutrients, it’ll also increase the total amount of nutrients in the pot. I’m thinking if I should treat it like a regular watering day—checking to make sure the soil is dry for the first few centimeters and watering until I see some runoff—to know for sure that I’ve given them enough nutrients. Because if i give them 5l of water with nutrients, for example, then there are more nutrients given total for the plant. I hope that makes sense.

This is where pictures would come in handy. We need photo evidence, feeding schedule, and environmental factors to give accurate advice. Without all of this you’ll get all kinds of answers and a fair amount will be incorrect.

Here are some pics of two of them, they all look more or less the same, about 60 cm tall.

Feeding schedule is as mentioned above: Plagron terra bloom: 5ml/1l water; Plagron power roots 1ml/1l water, Bigger flowers RQS 0.5ml/1l water

I make a batch of 10l water while adjusting the nutrients and I feed once a week.

Lights just flipped to 12h/12h to flower yesterday.

Edit: I’m not sure why the pictures appear so dark here. Is it the same for everyone else? Because on my camera and computer they look normal, it’s only when i upload here.

Your pics are too dark to see anything. Turn on your flash or make sure it’s bright to take a photo. We need to be able to see the different colors on the leaves. I use 10-gallon pots and water on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and then either Saturday or Sunday. I use about 5l of water per pot. On Mondays and Fridays I use silica, microbes, and other organic nutes especially pk during flower. On those days I give 1l water, 2l of nutes, and then 2 more water but I also top dress every 4 weeks with Gaia green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4. I hope this helps some.
