Beginner DWC bucket bubbler

I made about a 3 gallon bubble bucket as upgrade from using this small plant hydro kit and I used the nutes that came with it. The plant seems to be doing satisfactory

Nursery sold me these
Do i mix according to directions? Or do i need to use a different ratio? Can i let it go a week before changing water? I read biweekly but shes still on the same water for over a week with ehatever nutes came with that little hydro kit and no signs of slowing down.

What kind of descent get me by/low cost meter do i need to test ppm and whatever else? Thanks

I’ve never messed with ff stuff in hydroponics. In my opinion their stuff is kind of meh, there is cheaper stuff that’s more user friendly and does pretty good. Since you have this already it doesn’t hurt to try. I would follow directions then test ec. If it’s much over 1.5 i would probably water it down close to this for your relatively young plants. As plants mature follow basic recommendations for dwc hydroponic solutions and adjust as necessary.
