Feeding with AN

So just had a quick question. I plan on using AN Sensi A+B (grow and bloom). IF it says to water 16ml per week and I will be watering say 2 times a week does that mean i use 8ml each watering to get 16ml per week or use 16ml each time i water (32ml per week). I plan on feeding every watering and skipping one every three weeks to flush the soil. I will be using 5x 5gallon pots in a 4x4 room under 600w HPS.

Peace

First off, what soil are you using? hot soils, i.e. Ocean Forest, dont even need any ferts for the first 4-5 weeks. Second, NEVER use what is prescribed on bottles. Always start at quarter strength, work your way up through ther weeks to half, then to 3/4 then full. You may never even hit full strength as you will burn the shit out of tour plants probably at 3/4 strength. LESS IS OFTEN MORE IN GROWING.

and the directions are PER watering. try a feed-water-water-feed schedule.
 
Thanks for the Reply, I will be using Promix HP. I am loosly going to be using the following feed schedule which seems to have about halved the recommended : http://www.progressive-growth.com/images/feedchartimages/thom-recipe-2010.pdf. Should i still hold off on the ferts for the first 4-5 weeks, that seems like i skip using any in the veg stage

I've read that a feed water feed water schedule shocks the plants and is better to feed every water. maybe 75%-25%-75%-25%???

Thanks for your help

Go to the AN website and use the calculator. Under resevoir size I use whatever size container I am mixing my nutes in. AN is strong stuff and I find I only use up to half strength the whole grow. I start out at below quarter strength even. Saves on nutes and nute burn.
