i hate mixing notes as much as the next guy !! Yes please tell me more about Gaia Green ! I’ve read the thread you posted earlier twice. So example early flower 1 week before light switch I use 8tbsp 4-4-4 / 8tbsp 2-8-4 per 5 gallon contain what exactly does that mean? Do I add it to my water or what lol i sound crazy I know but I’ve been doing the same thing for so long. Okay then when it’s mid flower weeks 3-4 it says top dress 4tbsp 25% 4-4-4 / 12tbsp 75% 2-8-4 what is a top dress ?

Top dress means you mix in the dry amendments in the top of your plant as much as possible by scratching it in with fingers. It's easy I promise. And if you need any help me and @Shaded_One will guide you if you want to use his recipe. When it comes feeding 444 or 284 (nutrients) we do 3 tbsp per gallon of medium now . so for a 5 gallon it would be 15 tbsp of whatever is needed at that time. We do recommend 7gal or higher this will increase yield.

We don't ph the water. but I think me and shaded have good starting water. Mine is 7ph out of the tap.
We do dechlorinate which is just leaving the water in a bucket 24hrs and letting it just naturally evaporate.

Mine comes in around ~7.9-8.1 but no, no pH'ing over here that's the soils job :)

@Dietrich RO water will require additional micros to supplement Cal and Mag so I would double what I suggest to use for Epsom/Gypsum & Azomite etc
