Thank you for the advice! Only one is an auto. Been using RO, but switching to tap. I did have a cal deficiency one early on, so I’m assuming nute lock. Forgot to mention that I cut the soil with Happy frog also, so a bit less food them.Dry Amendments is a good start. You’re running autos in what looks like 5 gallon bags. 5 gallons of soil will keep your plants fed for another couple of weeks if not more. Don’t add anything but water.
Overfeeding an auto will give you poor results. When you do need to feed I would add some dr earth flowergirl at 1-2TBL every two weeks. Throw a handful of worm castings on top of the amendments and keep using tap water only.
Cal deficiency probably could have been avoided with tap water. My water gives me too much calcium.Thank you for the advice! Only one is an auto. Been using RO, but switching to tap.

Your advice takes the weight of figuring out what to feed them off of my shoulders. Thanks!

"Over feed"Do this
You will be fine
I use to overfeeding too
I don't have any synth chemicals really. I do have the FF trio, but haven't used any of it. I grabbed some Dr. Earth FG as suggested. Had some leaf curl, suggesting overwatering, but it was only the 2nd large watering they've had. Still curled as the soil dried, so i'm thinkin either poor drainage, or it wasn't overwatered. Still haven't fed much other than some cal mag in a weak ration and an epsom sprinkled on top of the soil. Worm castings on topsoil. Oh- I threw some coffee grounds on top as well.Toss out all those chemicals and get some sort of dry amendments. Gaia green is a great option, I personally use down to earth either mixed or single ingredient for control.
The biggest thing about organic is keeping your microbe’s healthy. Absolutely everything shuts down if they shut down. You can use castings or some other type of manure based compost to introduce them every so often or you can pick up some type of supplement such as recharge or fish shit.
Dont let your soil dry out too much either. You will find a balance. There are some liquid organic fertilizers out there, foop has been on my radar, i have not used any yet though. Im lazy so i like top dressing every few weeks
This is my goal. Aside from worm castings and Dr Earth FG, I'm not sure what amendments to add. I'll check out the nectar. Was looking at Gaia, but would like to keep it economical as well. I'm learning about KNF, and will likely make some FFJ and FPJ at least.I personally use a combo of dry amendments and Nectar for the Gods. This allows me to reuse my soil. My outdoor containers have soil that is 5-6 years old.
I even add some worms to my indoor and outdoor pots.
Sounds good to me! I watered really sparingly when they were really young. Too little I think. Then I gave quite a bit of water, and got the curling- suggesting over watering. I really didn't think I overwatered. I'm trying to listen to them- but I'm a noob.The first thing you need to do is stop splash watering and water these plants properly. Give the pots a good soaking. Then water once a week when needed. Keep the entire pot or bag moist not wet.
Thanks for the input. I gave them some water this morning, and then went back to make sure they are soaked. Should be better now. I didn't even know those new growth areas were so wilty until I pulled them up for some light. They were tucked under and hidden. Hopefully with water and light they will spruce up now. Thanks for the advice, again.Got ya. Look at the middle picture left side. See the stems limp and bent over. That's what wilting needs a drink looks like. If the stem is straight and the leaves look all hanging down thats more what over watering looks like.. You need to give these bags a god soaking so all the soil is watered. Then let them dry until the top inch or so is dry to the touch. Splash watering just around the plant is not good k.
