hey all I am jus wondering how much grow and bloom nutes everyone uses for auto flowers? I have read to start out 1/8-1/4 strength of back of bottle on nutrients. I'm using age old nutrients btw and on back it says 1 teaspoon per gallon which I feel is nothing and then to only use 1/4 strength of that is really nothing. U guys really only using a couple drops of nutrients to start out bc that's what it comes out too. I have grown regular photos with age old and used a lot of it per feed with great results. I have been growing for four years mostly outdoors in Mendocino, I have left there bc I was robbed by the mendo task force and giving autos a try now. Any help is appreciated thanks.

a teaspoon looks a hell of a lot bigger in a 5ml dropper, for base nutes I always start ~1/4 recommendation after 3-4 weeks from seed and take it slow building up over the next 2-3 weeks. I always give additives like overdrive, big bud and resonator at full strength once in bloom :hothot:

one exception is calmag which I give full doses from the get go, it seems to work for me and I am soil
 
With base nutes I nevergo past half the recommended amount. Like @billytimmy I do go full strength with addictives also.
