it depends on the pot size and what stage your in as well it can range from 200ml and up so roughly 9 oz or more or until it drains out the bottom of the pot

if this is your first time using nutes, use 1/4 strength of what the nutes recommend. there should be a guide on the bottle or box of nutes that you have. such as"2-3 teaspoons per gallon". you would then use a 1/4 of 2 teaspoons, or 1/2 teaspoon. mix that with the water. make sure your water is between 6.2-6.8 in ph. then water each plant until water begins to drip out of drainage holes. just drips, not pouring out the bottom. wait then until top 2" of soil is dry to water again..... good luck

4 gal pots are going to take a substantial amount of water. so read what your specific nutes say, and use 1/4 of what they recommend. i assume your in vegitative cycle and using vegitation nutes, correct?
