When to add nutes?

IM GROWING IN A WATER FARM BUCKET, THE PLANT IS IN ITS FOURTH WEEK OF GROWING, AND IM WONDERING WHEN IS A GOOD TIME TO ADD THE FLORA NOVA TO THE PLANTS? DO THE PLANTS HAVE TO BE A CERTIN HEIGHT?

You should already be feeding them.. http://http://www.generalhydroponics.com/genhydro_US/pdf_ghss/fn_ss.pdf

I looked at the chart and i gotta say it seems a little rich. Do you have a TDS meter or EC? I would build up to the numbers they are showing. How many nodes does ur plant have?

Did you get straitened out there blue? I use the Flora Nova series and love it.

yeah i got it worked out, im growing 2 plants in 2 diffrent buckets, in one bucket i added a very little nute and it stunted the growth and turned the leaves yellow, and the other bucket i have just water and its growing like a wild fire. i flushed the one with nute in it out, and its leaves are turning green again, so im going to wait at least another 2-3 week before i add nute to any of my plants. by the way the plants are at there 4th node.

What kind of nutes are you using?
Did you mix them properly?

Going 25% strength is recommended.
Although there are nutrients in tap water, you could be loosing out on some serious gain and effect the outcome overall.

GH Micro and Bloom and using the lucas formula I go 25% strength once I see roots that need to eat.
Good luck and good grow.
