New Grower When to Say Enough Nutes?

[Magic]

Hello family, i been thinking of adding some things to my feeding schedule but i dont know if it will help or hurt me. I just want to know when do you say enough nutes? i see some people use 3-5 products others use 10-15 how do you know when to stop adding to you feedings?Thanks for any help or insight on the thinking behind getting the most out of feeding.:tiphat:

They all are feeds but most have different ingredients, flick through some nutes ingredients and see what you need and add as nessasary. Small but often normally works!

I think it takes time experimenting between grows, learning what helps, hurts, what your plants can take. Developing something like an "empath" capability to feel how your plants are doing.

My second auto grow I didn't use bloom booster. It has done very well, but I feel it could have done better and may be due to it not getting a hard hit of PK. My third grow is in early bloom and I've started GH's liquid KoolBloom, and will use powdered KB in the last two weeks before cleanse. (I used these on the first grow.).

I'm already starting to "read" subtle differences like this. It's funny because it wasn't that long ago I had no idea what was going on from day to day. My only goal was not to kill the plant. Now I'm thinking about how to change things a little to fine tune what works for me. Never thought I'd have that (still developing) skill.

i use quite a few nutrients additives and beneficials in my grows.... but there is no point using something that you dont know what it does and when best to use it, and that comes wit experience as you get more grows under your belt.. i mean, i have have very good yields with just rizzo canna coco a and b and pk 13/14 at the end, but im getting better results now i am using more bits and bobs... the key is giving them what they need and when they need it...
