Watering & feeding questions....

I have 7 plants all in week 6 of flowering. They all are doing fine. I water them when the soil is fairly dry. I have foxfarm nutes and use them during watering. Is this ok or should I have a feeding regimen? I read a book a few days ago that recommended a feeding/watering schedule of 4 times daily. I am growing in organic soil under 400 hps. I have had a few slight nute burn issues but all corrected early. This is my 1st grow. I would also hate to be cheating myself on bud production based on watering/feeding. any comments or suggestions? Thanks!

If they are doing good then dont worry about it. But at the end of week 6 you might want to think about starting to flush them. unless you are going to flower longer than 8 weeks.

feeding and water 4 times a day. that seems excessive.
my regimen is something like feed,water,feed,water,feed,water.
and thats feed 1 day, water usually 2 days later, feed two days later. you can usually go a day without watering if your soil is still wet. get a moisture probe ($7 at basically any place that sells garden supplies) it will help you know when to water. if theres still wet/damp you probably dont need to water.
