35L pot filled with coco fibre, how much, and how many times a day should i feed? Im using 3L once a day at the moment, supplemented with foliar feed. Is this alright? Im in 12 12 now, so should i feed more often than i do when in grow? Cheers

i feed every other watering... starting with 1/4 dose of nutes mixed in with the water. usually watering 1gal pots every week and 2-3 gallon pots every 2 weeks. depends on how big the plant is and how much it drinks. how dry the room is. underfeeding is way better than overfeeding my man, trust me.

In Coco you will want to feed every watering IMO. Watering will depend on a lot of factors like Size of plant, pot size, the mix of Coco/perlite. More perlite the more you will need to water. I grow in Coco with 30% perlite and water my flowering plants in 3 gal pots usually every other day. Unless your plants droop I wouldn't water them everyday considering it just costs more money in nutrients and most likely not needed. Then again if the top of the soil looks really dry and the pot is light then it is time to water. Only your plants can tell you win to water so you can't really listen to me or anybody else.

Are you growing in Coco? In soil you will want to feed every other watering but not in Coco. Coco you should feed every time you water for sure.

I use coco coir, i feed 3 times a day with dutch master, no signs of any harm, opposite actually. I use the nute mix for 2 days, then refill. Ive done that since turning 12/12. So im happy, probably gettn about 6 litres per feed.
