What about the watering schedule. Do you water 2. 3 times if needed in between nutes ? Does that strip the nutes when you do that ?

Soil likes a wet to dry cycle and overwatering is generally contributed to frequency and not the amount. Depending on your vessel size the time between watering not feeding could be 2-4 days. Pics and age of your plants is needed for suggestions on watering frequency . Watering between feedings is needed to prevent nutrient over feeding 
Pics of plants here. Yes. I weighed my pots. They weighed 10 lbs with soil no water or plants. I would water rhem and they would weigh. After runoff about 17 lbs. They would than go to about 11 lbs . 12. And be super light n dry a whole finger length. It was 5 days. Now its 2 days. My question is the water to nute ration in regards to frequency. Does a plain watering flush out nutes from soil ? So if i had to water say sunday. Tues. Thursday. And sat. Would i water nuts on Sunday. Water other 3 and than next weeks nutes in schedule starting after that 3rd watering ? Using advanced nutrients micro grow bloom

Yes Alternate. Feed, water , feed and checking the run of numbers of each. I stay around 900-1000 in veg and 1000-1100 PPMs in flower
So. To indulge on that a little. The micro grow bloom from advanced nutrients perfect ph alrdy does oerfect ph. The ppm if i mix correctly should equal that volume yes ? I use filtered tap water through a filtrete under sink fikter system
If not. How would i manually change ppm without offsettinf thier feed chart ?

Keep a notebook handy to write various numbers in. Start with the PH and PPMS of your water source. Example: water source is 7.0 PH with 150 PPMs. For a full feeding of 1000 PPMs you would add 850 PPMs of nutrient mix. The same for collecting run off samples and feeding again. Mix a trial sample in a gallon jug and write the numbers down. The nutrient schedule should have PPMs/EC recommended by the growth stage
You have to modify the schedule to change the PPMs. The schedule should give PPMs by quantity and you just decrease or increase to change that
Awesome. Tyvm ! I think I get it. I havnt found a ppm schedule with the advanced nutrients micro grow bloom. I’ll try googling again n see what I get

When I started I would mix a few one gallon jugs with different doses and write the numbers down and then I would feed that to the yard plants. Try a 1/2 dose in 1 gallon and see what the results are
Here’s the Advanced Nutrients feed chart calculator. You can choose Grow Micro and Bloom as your base:
