How many gallons of feed should I use per gallon of soil?

I'm feeding once a week and watering once a week. I'm in day 36 of flower and I'm using jacks classic blossom booster. I'm mixing 1 tbsp per gallon of water. The plant I'm using it for is in about 8 gallons of soil. Any suggestions?

Mix per the directions, and mix enough water so that your pots fill up and start seeping out the drainholes.

I'm day 36 flower as well, and I do:

- full nutes
- full water
- half nutes

...every three days. My plants are liking that regimen. I've got 3 x 3.5 gallon pots, and one gallon of feed mix saturates all the pots, then I split a 1/2 gallon across all three after about 15 minutes of the water dripping out of the bottom (the 1/2 gallon stays in the pot once they're already saturated).

If your watering only once per week in soil, your over watering your plant. or your plant is sick and not up-taking water.
Do you mean under watering? The cycle seems pretty good to me... feed, then 3.5 days later straight water, then 3.5 days feed etc.
