Thats right so for every 1L of water your adding 1ml of the start stuff, so for 5L of water youd have 5ml of start mixed in.
Mix it all up good and proper and then set the ph, one thing ypu might find is say you mix up 10L in a barrel or something and set the ph to 5.8 when you come back the following day the ph might read 6 or above, dont worry just add a few more drops and mix again.
I often find it takes a couple of days to get it set right so its worth mixing it up days in advance and keep making adjustments each day

Drugs and Alcohol are never the answer! Unless the question was “what am I doing tonight”.

sort of, you basically just need to learn to read the plants. when they start to look a little pale or any sign of yellow its time to go to 1.2ml per litre, if they start going really dark and leathery then just cut back a little
don't get too hung up on the charts, just use it as a reference so you know what feed you are meant to be giving at any given time

not really you just need to use your own judgement really, thats why its best to feed less to start with so you can get used to what's going on and also get used to how the plants respond to the nutrients your using, after a couple of grows you'll know how much you need to mix up and at what strength it needs to be.
overwatering isn't too much of a problem in coco but letting the pots dry out like we spoke about will help the roots grow, when the plants are bigger you can keep the coco saturated all the time but for now best to build your root system. the bigger/healthier root system you grow in veg the better results you'll get in flower

So focus on 1ml just check pots if there heavy if not water them until water comes on trays going get watering can to feed them watch the plants with nutrients
