Suggested amount of Fox Farm nute trio for hydroponics

Hey all. Im currently using fox farms nute trio for hydroponics and was wonder what the suggested amount of nutes should be used in for a 1 gallon reservoir for vegging. Ive done some researching and seen some using 1/4 of the suggested nutes, so thats what i been doing. But my plants dont seem to be growing as much. Any suggestions. Thanks for the help. Plants are currently in week 4 of veg.

Rather than go off feed label, give them suggested amount of ppm or EC for the plants age. Some plants can handle more and others less. If you water starts at 0 ppm and you add nutrients, then a plant in early stages would be ok in the range from 300-500ppm. Some people do a complete cycle veg - flower and never go over 600ppm while others like myself hit heights of 1700+ppm. Its all about the genetics of your plant and grow style. Really no easy answer to this as it is something you have to discover through trial and error. Good luck, happy growing!

And what type of equipment do i need to get the ppm or ec info

Nm found it. Thanks for the help.
