Growing outside and have foxfarm soil. What PPm should I mix the nutes too in early, mid and end of flower? Just an avg PPM doesn't need to be specific.

Follow the dosing guide that came with the nutes (you can go lighter if you like). The ppm’s are more for coco/hydro than soil. What nutes are you using?

I only ever grew in DWC and use technaflora nutes that includes bc boost, bc bloom, sugar daddy, awesome blossom, etc... When I do DWC this current strain likes 1000 PPM.... I'm done growing inside after 9 years so I'm using these nutes up.

In looking at the calculator, I’m not sure if those nutes are designed for soil, but they may be. Use their directions.. Also I’d be a little careful if those nutes are 9 years old, they may not be any good. If they’ve precipitated out, inside the bottles I wouldn’t use them.

Yeah soil is double the amount of nutes from the DWC option. So if I feed at 1000ppm in DWC, double would be 2000 ppm in soil..... How often do you use nutes and mix in with the water for soil? Like once or twice a week???
Most people do feed, then water only, then feed , then water only, ad infinitum, ad nauseum. (LOL)
