The rule of thumb I learned was to use nutrients every other watering when you're working with soil (either in pots or in the ground). So basically you water the plants with plain water once, feed once, water, feed, water, feed, etc. Each time they need more water, you just alternate between plain and nutes.

When you're talking about plants that are in the ground and can get rained on, you also want to keep a good eye on the weather. Say you're about to get some rain in a few days and the next watering would be with nutrients. Just skip the nutes, use plain water, and then feed after the ground has dried up a bit after the rain. Otherwise when it rains it will just wash all your nutes away which would be a complete waste.


Growing in the ground I would usually recommend using Heavy Harvest but what you're doing is fine. I just like HH because its time-release and takes all the guesswork out of it. Much simpler. There's a guy on You-Tube called Brown Dirt Warrior that has a good series on how to grow outdoors that includes how he uses Heavy Harvest. That's where I learned from.
