Feeding 101

I searched the forum but couldnt find the exact answer I am looking for. So I have a bottle of water with nutrients. I give it to plant just about and the soil stays wet for 2 days. After 2 days when its time to water again, should I use regular water or the nutrient water again? I mean, do I ever need to use regular water for my plant? Or nutrient mixed water all the time whenever the plant needs watering and use PHdown to stabilize the soil PH?

What are you growing in? Alternate watering and nutrients
30x30x60 micro single plant around 5 liter pot lightmix soil. I am using rain water and sometimes fresh water from woodlands nearby. I mixed those nutrients in suggested dosage with rain water. However I am new to feeding so I am a little confused. As it says on the box to give every week, does that mean I give it once a week and the rest of the week I use regular rain water? Wouldnt that flush away the nutrients? On the other hand giving the nutrient water every time I water the plant, would cause some PH problems and maybe other issues aswell. So how to do it?

Thanks for reply mate

unless you eat soup theirs just 2 separate routines

watering about 2-3 times per week, lift pot first

and feeding

adding a pinch of nute ot the water as in feeding

just one time per week

or you get them nutes building up in the soil

and then the yellow leaves routine

good luck
