Nutrients every watering or alternate with ph water ?

Hey Folks, finishing my third grow attempt with a nute burned plant.
I’m still trying to learn to do this correctly.
my question is:
if the feeding chart shows the dosage for week 6, is that what you give the plant Every watering during week 6, or do you give it that dosage just once during that week and then just ph water until the week 7 dosage, and then repeat?

I only ask because I burnt the plant again.

You can't go by feeding charts, they are made to sell nutes not grow healthy plants..
Use half of recommended dose and feed every two times you water.. Feed, water, water, feed..

You haven't stated your growing medium.

If you've already burnt the plant, that tells you that you should be feeding less than what you're currently doing,

Less is more

Get an EC/ppm meter and learn what ec you should be using in the medium you have. Then mix to that specific ec.

I followed the ppm chart and did less than listed but it still burned.

The chart only shows the proportuons to mix... you'll need to water it down to achieve the right ec... roughly... ec 1 increasing to 1.8 by week 5

Again. Dont listen to feed charts.
Watch ec/ppm
Feed chart will have you feeding @2.xx ec. Way to high. That's why you got issues.

If you're in coco you feed every watering if you're in soil you don't. You never follow the feed charts because they are in it to sell nutrient you start lower and work up if needed.

I feed it half the dosage of nurse but I gave it mutes Every watering for 10 weeks. I’m probably lucky it didn’t die, but I think I even burned the buds if that’s possible.
Is it possible to burn the buds?
If so is it safe to smoke?

Is it possible to nute burn the buds, all the sugar leaves are gone and some of the tops like crispy?

Yeah the buds can burn, but no big deal.. Still usable..
