hi guys, just want to hear some opinions on some things, so here i go :

1. how often should i water plants put in a small clearing in a forest , and also how often should i feed ?
2. if my nutrient solution's npk is 4.5-4.5-8, is this suitable for flowering, and also is the npk enough ?
3. if i put double concentration of fert in the water would i get 9-9-16 npk ? or i just stick to manufacturers reccomended dose ?
4. what other additives that i can make at home should i give my flowering plants ?
5. any good method to dry the weed outside ?
6. any advice or suggestion is more than welcome

the plants are in flower about 20 days in, and i can see little buds forming, the strains are church and himalaya gold. peace and thank you for the replyes.

1. Depends on weather for watering. Once a week feeding is a good place to start. Always feed less than is recommended, until youi become familiar with your plant's needs.

2. I shoot for a ratio of 1-4-3 for flowering. That can be 10-40-30 or 3-12-9. (2-1-1 for vegging)

3. No. The volume changes, but not the ratios.

4. Make compost. Add coffee grounds and egg shells to your plant's root zones. I mulch heavily with leaves and lawn clippings.

5. Dry your weed INSIDE SOMETHING. Heat and sunlight destroy THC.

6. Read my grow threads, linked below. A lot of reading, but they're based on 50+ years of successful outdoor gardening.(More than half that with emphasis on Cannabis.)
