How to Feed with FoxFarm

Hi guys,

I'm a new grower and don't know how to feed my plant with FoxFarm nutes. Could you please tell me how to use nutrients? As i have heard it is good to feed every third time of watering with 1/4 or half of what the schedule says. Also i wonder how often should i check the pH and should i add the pH adjuster with only food or with only water? Your help will be very much appreciated.
Sorry for my bad English.

I haven't planted yet. I don't have foxfarm soil. 1.5 teaspoon is it the half strength of what is said in schedule?

Most soils have nutes that last at least 30 days. Use the FF trio, but switched to milliliters cause its easier for me. I start with 10ml Big Bloom and 5 ml Tiger Bloom per gallon, when they hit the flower rm, watering every 2 days, alternate with water ph'd to 6.0. Ph your water after you add the nutes. About 3 weeks into flower I bump up the nutes to 15ml BB 10 ml TB. Once or twice in flower I will throw 5 ml Grow Big in the mix. I'm probably on the light side for strength, but I hate nute burn.
