After going through a few grows in these super small, quick drying pots i have observed a few things and have for the most part now got the understanding of how to feed my girls and keep them happy.
You will have to take in mind this is for feeding with Bio Bizz organic nutes and Light Mix soil, and should count for most similar brand organic nutes and light soils, but if you are using chem nutes might want to be careful not to burn your girls feeding more than once a day, so would just feed them once a day and keep the soil moist and only add a second feed a day if you see them asking for it.
Another thing with these small pot grows is the whole lifecycle seems to speed up with reduced veg time and early flowering, with just about everything i have done so far being ready in the 50-60 day range, but with this it is critical not to stunt them in that shortened veg period as i did in my latest grow, keep any training low stress with bending, tucking and selective trimming if needed in this period.
I wont use a schedule with specific amounts or brands, just use what you would as veg or bloom feeds for the age of the plant and if she asks for more or less adjust you feeds accordingly.
Days 1-5
100ml plain water per day (mild root stim on day 1 if using)
Day 6
250ml mild grow feed (plus root root stim if using)
Days 7-9
300ml plain water per day
Day 10
300ml mild grow feed (plus root root stim if using)
Days 11-12
350ml plain water per day
Day 13
400ml mild grow feed (plus root root stim if using)
Days 14-17
400ml water and then grow feed alternating day by day (plus root root stim if using)
Days 18-20
400ml grow feed per day
Days 21-28
grow feed TWICE a day, i do this at between 10am-11am and again between 5pm and 6pm, feed just past runoff each time and then dump the excess water, for me this is 300ml for the morning feed and 250ml for the afternoon but will vary grow to grow a little
Days 29-35
bloom feed TWICE a day
Days 36-42
reduce grow/nitrogen a little, increased bloom feed and add bloom boosters TWICE a day, some plants may start to drink more and require three feeds a day, keep a eye on the moisture levels and if they drink more adjust the timings for a THIRD feed a day later in the evening and then push the afternoon and morning feeds back by a couple of hours.
Days 42-45
back off grow/nitrogen and keep full strength bloom feeds TWICE or THREE times a day
Days 45-50/55
cut out all grow/nitrogen and feed just bloom and any boosters TWICE or THREE times a day
Days 50/56+
plain water flush for as many days needed till trichs tell you to harvest, if using chem nutes would recommend 5-7 days min to cleanse the plants, but with organics a couple of days seem enough without affecting the taste as long as you cut the grow/nitrogen soon enough.
