First time grower, full of doubts - Also sort of a growth journal

[OttoCBD]

This is what i found in english https://www.growbarato.net/en/boosters-additives/3118-bactomatik-rex-special-automatics.html
The nutes i bought, but haven't gave to the girls yet, are these https://www.advancednutrients.com/products/ph-perfect-connoisseur-bloom-ab/ They have magnesium and calcium, i'm hoping it's enough. On the growshop they made me a nutes table, that's a 1/4 of the table of the manufacturer.

I'm not sure if you saw the following or not but AN's website specifically says..

There are certain people who are not yet ready for pH Perfect Connoisseur…

• pH Perfect Connoisseur is not for the grower who has been growing for less than 1 year …
• pH Perfect Connoisseur is not for the grower who has not dialed in his growing environment (lights, temperature, grow & bloom cycles, pest control, etc)…
• pH Perfect Connoisseur is not for the grower who is struggling to get great results from other pH Perfect Base nutrients (all pH Perfect Base Nutrients are already dialed in to give great plant specific results – you should already be getting great results with pH Perfect Sensi for example before trying pH Perfect Connoisseur).
• In other words: only experienced growers should use this unique formulation.

Since this is your first grow, and you admittedly have doubts, why not use TaNg's EASY Auto Feeding Schedule (linked here) ..It's easy, it's been tested and will give you good results.

I know i don´t have to justify myself, but i did not choose those specific nutes. I asked for advice at the growshop, they knew it was my first grow and i followed what they said. I should have trusted more in what i read online, but they were really sure of what they were telling me. This nutes are probably more expensive, or something like that, so that's what they sold. I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

They very well could have sold you those bottles to make money. It's hard for me to say. All I can say is that if you follow TaNg's EASY Auto Feeding Schedule you can't go wrong ..and if something should go wrong you have a ton of people here on the AFN willing to help you.

Thank you. You have no idea how many times people tell me i worry about small details too much and overthink things, especially on my job. The replies i'm getting at AFN make me feel like the "new guy" on the team. No critics, only helpers. I'll do my best to not overthink things and just let nature do it's thing.

Aare you keeping a journal? I think it is a great idea especially 1st couple grows. You can make a spreadsheet date.time/activity.
RH/temp (lights on/off), water (amount), PPM in_out (if you water to runoff (I dont)), all of the inputs. Then a daily journal. Helped me keep my sanity getting it down.

I have a calendar, in wich i record watering (only once so far), and the min/max temp and rh.
