Hi guys,
I'm new here.

I struggle with this question: if my nutes schedule says week 1 1ml/l does it mean i have to feed that nute concentration on every watering done that week? Or that it needs just 1ml? Or that just once a week 1ml/l for as much water as needed than plain water? What's your take on that?

The chart means every watering you are using that ratio.

However it's not that simple, it depends on what you are growing in.

Soil will not need feeding for a while as it contains nutrients.
As they are used you will then start to introduce nutrients. Maybe at a reduced rate, maybe you feed , water, feed ..

Hydro and coco require nutrients every watering.

I feel like I've given you more questions than answers.

So specifically, the chart means every time you water in that period you will add 1ml per liter of water used

Thanks mate!
I guessed so and feeded every watering, but i'm growing in soil light mix and i felt the plant overwhelmed.. I guess to follow the schedule literally you'd need a thriving monster
