 How often to fertilize?

I was wondering how often any of you fertilize your plants? Outdoor in 200 gallon growbags. with organics? Are micro-nutrients fertilized less often like once a week?
I usually use alot of different methods to check how often I need to fertilize(I.e. the way the plant looks from the feeding...) but I was wondering your guys input? Thanks

That pic was taken a couple weeks ago. It has since grown alot more. I'll update a few pics of some others in smaller pots an in big pots soon.
It is ocean forest fox farm blend. Came from Humboldt county. We use alot of chicken poo in the beginning with worm castings and guano. Some happy frog in there as well. Been trying to up the feed but don't wanna go overboard.
For feed we got fox farm liquid grow, sea kelp, super thrive, humic acid and enzymes.
Anything else suggested from anyone will be highly appreciated

how long has the plant been in that grow bag? that first big question because normaly i wont feed for atleast 4 weeks when my girls are in fox farm.. but then again they are also normaly in a 5 gallon pot. so they have alot less soil to grow into to feed off of.
also did you start the plant in the bag from a small plant or did up transplant it into the big bag when the plant was already grown out alot?

Every two weeks or so, but I usually mix some organic stuff with some soil before transplanting, like eggshells, coffee grounds, fish stuff, banana peels etc. if it's outdoor growing. chill 3 weeks before harvesting.

I feed once a week but it's not a heavy feed (a little over a tbl spoon Neptunes harvest in 3 gallons). I dunno how to shed any advice on that though. Is that even one plant?

As I get older I find myself coming more and more 'organic' ..the comfort of that is that most of the important stuff has also been added long before germing, but should I have a doubt, and often I do.. I turn to a nettle(stinging nettle uk)
tea in a pint spray bottle, to bump up any (N) being used to quick, and the same with comfrey tea, for bud,both diluted 20:1 and sprayed 2-3 times a day at max, ....as its very difficult to burn with foilar .....lol

Foliar used to impress me until I burned my plants with it. Just say no. Does the rain contain fertilizers (other than chemtrails of course)?
I rest my case...

I fert twice a week. You also don't need 200 gallons. That must cost a lot of cash to fill up and buy nutes for. I can get 15 footers+ out of 7 gallons. But do the 200 gallons if you can afford it.

200 gal pots are awesome. Look on youtube and people using them to grow 10+ pound plants. Most of the time they are using water from streams and rivers rather than from the home with super soil though.
