Nute lockout?

Look in to promix, it is a good substrate that only contains starter nutes and is really easy to work with. FF soil is fine so long as you know what you are getting in to. It takes a lot of flushing to keep the salts washed out. I just like promix because the plant gets what you feed it and that is all. Just like hydro except you are still watering what looks like soil. Basically a good place to start if you are considering hydro.
 
Update.. couple of days after the flush.. the left side is before. Right side after.. DD top set. CK bottom.. looking bushier.. lol.. the pistols are starting to turn brown.. 37 days out of the soil so far..

Hey all.. this week will start week 6.. can I start back on nutes.. . Meaning next watering.. also.. I might not be watering them correctly.. do you water these (with or without nutes) till there's 20% runoff..I've just been giving them about 32oz.. no run off at all.. or just plain water to run off. Here is the feeding chart.. first time adding the tiger bloom.. thanks again for any advice..I hope that question was clear.. lol..

if I understand what you mean by numbers.. the tiger bloom would be 2 teaspoons per gal.. I would break that down to 1/2 teaspoon per gal.. making it 1/4 nute dosage.. so would I pour a gal per plant.. I'd have run off.. that's the main part I think I'm not understanding.. they are 3 gal pots..would I always water with 1 gal per plant. if nuted water or not?.. when they do need watering.. I just have been pouring enough to wet about 3 inches down.. about 32oz.. thanks again for the help.. I think this may just be why they lockouted.. and I.want to correct whatever I may have done wrong.. to NOT do that again.. lol. ..
 
I think I'm out of the woods on the nute lockout :-).. I mixed up two gallons of water.. added 1/2 nutes.. (2 teaspoons of tiger bloom, 3 teaspoon of big grow following FF TRIO chart for feeding at week 6).. PHd to 6.5.. gave each plant 1 gallon.. runoff was 5.7.. the Dark Devil is big and bushy.. buds are starting to get big! The Candy Kush is definitely stunted a tad.. she's not as bushy.. the buds are starting to get bigger.. so I think I'm good now.. thanks so much for all the help..
