So I can use this until for a full grow, and then add the same amount of nutrients I just did and that's all?

You'll get 1 round out of the FFOF. After that, you need to amend with dry, organic ferts (id use a blend like DTE bio-live or BAS craft blend), water the soil, let it sit for a week or 2, then you can use it.

From there, your on your own, as you need to really be in tune with your plant/soil, so you know what it needs and when. May need some EWC here or there, and a top dress or 2 every once in a while, and may need to reamed after a few rounds, but again, that's all up to you as you learn and grow

Alright! Would I add the same dry nutrients I added this time in the same quantity or should I cut it in half when I let it cook again?
From there it's just making sure I pay attention to what my plants need (by top dressing missing nutrients or using teas) and ammend in between harvests, with the dry counterpart until i get to the point my soil is diverse enough to not need anything extra?
Sorry for all the questions. It's a lot to learn in a short period and I'm still comprehending the basics.

When you start messing around re amending and adding stuff to the soil be sure to keep some "used" or "drained" or "depleted" soil off to the side separate and don't add anything to it.

That way if you get too crazy and your soil mix ends up too hot and didn't work well you can "water it down" with the used stuff.
