Anyone Use Gaia Green as Top Dressing?

Looking for some advice about top dressing with Gaia green nutes. The label says 1 tbsp per gal of soil every 4 weeks. I had fallen behind on my feeding schedule due to personal problems. When I finally got around to too dressing my plants were super hungry. I added 1 tbsp per Gal of BOTH 4-4-4 all purpose and 3-0-2 insect frass, which is twice the recommended dose. Both plants have reacted well and it’s coming up to 3 weeks since the top dress but they are starting to look like they could use another dose. My concern is that I am very new to Gaia green amendments and I am afraid I may overfeed or underfeed them as I have already fed them much more then the instructions state but they are looking like they are using it all up. Does have experience with Gaia and are the label instructions on the light side for cannabis?

yes play catch up as long as you are not beyond 6th week of flower I use mostly Gia green amendments, if u like the pre mixed stuff try the ucann line from Gia green it’s designed specifically for cannabis. works great to reamend!

I see Mr Canuck recently uploaded a new video where he uses Gaia Green throughout the grow at, I think 2-3 week intervals. Might help you with you with ideas for your application.

best to break down the feeds into weekly doses, example if feeding a half cup every second week try feeding a quarter cup weekly.plants prefer a steady supply of food for the most part

Quick update: thank you both! You guys were %100 right they did need more then the label suggested. Finally looks like I’m getting caught up with the feedings and I’m doing smaller weekly doses now as well.
