So I'm running soil under 3-600's per tray and I was wondering of I should be watering with general hydro nuets then on the next time it's time to water then use straight ph'd water. So nuets, water, nuets, water ECt... Right?
Or can I give them nuets all the time when there in soil?

Im not sure about soil, I run a DWC using GH nutes and i follow the lucas formula, its pretty simple.

You don't need to buy all three solutions of GH. Eliminate the "Grow." You can use GH nutrients VERY successfuly by just using the Micro and the Bloom. Its a two to one ratio. For vegging 0-5-10. For flowering 0-8-16.

Vegging: Grow = 0 / Micro = 5ml per gallon / Bloom = 10ml per gallon.

Flowering: Grow = 0 / Micro = 8ml per gallon / Bloom = 16ml per gallon.

The above is called the "Lucas" formula. Developed by a very highly regarded cannabis guru named Lucas. (What else?) *lol*

It would depend on how often you water and how the plants take it. When I had my soil ones I watered 2-3 times a week (usually 3) and I would do nutes, water, water, etc. But if yours take it fine or you only water twice a week then going every other one would probably be fine. I would not give them nutes every time. Seems like that would lead to alot of salt buildup and eventual lockout of at least one nute.
