hey every body new to this growing thing and this site so just wanna say hey, and also I had a couple of questions I needed answered if you don't mind ok I know during the first 3 weeks to a month you feed it no nutes and when I transplant to a bigger pot and go into vegetative stage you use a soil high in nitrogen ( I was told something like 20-5-5) and in flowering something high in potassium ( like 5-15-15) so my question is will the nutrients (N-P-K) run out of the soil? and if so is that why we use nutes or will (N-P-K) always stay in the soil and the reason for nutes is other nutrients such as zinc and etc.? Or is it to maintain all nutrients? And if so how do you measure the amount of each nute in the soil? Also after my plant is through with vegetative cycle and ready for flowering will I have to TRANSPLANT to another pot with soil high in potassium or would I use nutes to lower nitrogen and higher potassium in the soil I already have?
