Whatever the bottles say i would use 1/4 strength untill at least 8 to 12 inchs tall then slowly work it up from there.

You use the 'drain to waste' table at 1/3rd the strength for soil. 4-8-16ml is really hot. Something like 1-1-4ml would work much better. Given every 6-7 days. Feed, water, water, feed. The watering before the feed should have 30% run off. Don't skip a day in between water and fertilizer. The soil needs to be somewhat moist before the nutes are added. If they're added to dryer soil. The plant will intake a stronger concentration. Burning itself. With a moist soil the plant takes up the nutes softer. Less chance of burn.

When the three part fertilizers end up grating your nerves. Buy a bag of Maxibloom. 1/2 to 3/4rds of a teaspoon to one gallon water and call it even.

Maybe I'm not understanding your question. What do you mean when you say you're "growing in ProMix it didn't help"?

The Jungle Juice is the three part base nutes, no?
If so its 4ml/liter of each. That should give you a well balanced feed.
The Big Bud should be used during wks 2-5 @ 2ml/l
Calmag is unnecessary. It already has the correct ratio and adding more could cause probs.
I've used AN and it works really well but its way too pricey considering all the other options available.
Also, even if its the pH perfect, in peat I added Protekt (silica) because it helped keep pH stable and its a good addition.

At the very top of the calc.
Cutting and Seedlings: 1 ml/L | Small Plants: 2 ml/L | Mature Plants: 4 ml/L
