5-8-4 once a week at 4-6 tablespoons top dress with your recharge dry and mix that together in a cup , sprinkle on top and ph water it in and seaweed feed from the drain pan , keep it moist and learn your ppm chart for each stage of plant growth and you will be golden .

been few days now . i have flushed on the 14th,- water only on the 16th.- and yesterday on the 19th gave all this stuff at 1/2-dose per gal.
Alaska morebloom 0-10-10 2tsp
A.N. big bud 0-1-3 // 1/2tsp
kelp-tivate 0-0-2 // 2Tbsp
cal-mag 2-0-0 // 1/2tsp
recharge // 2tsp
all this came out to;
2-11-15 in at ppm 768 and a pH of 6.2
hopefully this will boost the super soil so the girls can make it to the end . i am going to flip lights in room for the photo to 12/12 , on thursday, that means all the autos will be 12/12 now for there last 2-3 weeks .

If they are happy and itās close to the end I wouldnāt worry too much about it. As long as everything else is the way it should be. I havenāt noticed a decrease in water towards the end. maybe someone else will chime in.

You know I stress @alienofasoul water management is highly important . I donāt think a 3 gallon pot plant requires a full gallon to grow from veg to flower in my personal opinion from what Iāve experienced in water managing and I was overly shocked how much bigger the roots were with less watering than just using a full gallon per say , so I did a Lil Yoshi test 
and I did not have to used a full gallon until week 7 in flower and it was due to me skipping a light watering and they used double the amount I was giving at the time.
Have you glass the buds yet ? If you have are you satisfied with the results as of now , determines on what you do next and what are the plants saying over all as to what stage they are in growth?
You are seeing and have more knowledge to what , and this is where over watering can be a mistake and cause unnecessary mold by over doing it .
Keep in mind the water that goes into the pot must get used somehow right , which the plant roots will used that water and it will also vaporized that water out through the stomata in flower which can cause high humidity late in bloom and if itās not enough air moving are temp control , it can cause molding in the dense buds if itās over watered , just a side note 
!
But in my opinion I would start to water starve them just a bit to get that last push of trichomes out as a last ditch to protect the buds and replace those that may have been damaged by over touching or excess trimming , if you bump the plants and it starts to stink good 
, thatās the caps of ripe tricks exploding and sapping the buds with resin , can be good and bad if not cautious !

yes thanks again @yoshi they are in 5 gal. fabric pots and water schedule was 1/2 gal. every other day . till week 3 of flower then went to 3/4 gal. every other day and that is with 4 fans on constantly , with rh at 45 . last watering had to wait 3 days and now after watered on sept. 19th it will be 4 days if i water tomorrow on the 23rd . -----will be at the 12/12 light now for this week and then in the dark for 48 hours till chop . i will try some tric pics and show like @Nicky said . thanks again to all the helpers .

@alienofasoul why you thinking anything is wrong ? If itās just a plain watering , thatās never bad this late as it can serve as a light flushing if itās just plain ph water . Are you stuck on the watering schedule are you watering them when they need watering , try to keep a schedule on what the plant is doing , not just because itās been 3 days sort speak , is Iām making sense here ? I donāt necessarily follow a strick watering schedule due to growing multiple plants , one will always be odd or different than most , so I try to manage each plant off itās characteristics from what Iām seeing visibly and by touch. One can get more air than another die to plant placement, so strick watering schedules can be a bit much to soon if you have a fix gallon watering schedule . If you give a gallon each time and the one plant needs a gallon and half and one needs a 1/4 of a gallon , could become an issue in one plant verses the other, does that make sense , I hope so Iām not being confusing!

I did not want to confuse you in what I was trying to explain . Itās okay to break watering schedules if the plants needs more water are donāt need any at all .

They say plants take on less water wen in flower so they spend kore time with buds but with some strains they do take pess water ā¦but most jus water normallyā¦ I check my my plants a few times a day so I always keep trying to keep them moist and I will stressed dry. Stress dry letting soil dry out almost fully when need toā¦ It does help

All Iām saying is I havenāt experienced it. 
Edit
my 5 gallons in soil usually take 1.5 gallons every 2-3 days and my 7 gal pots in soil take 2.5 gallons peak flower every 2 days to get 20% run off.
My 5 gallon pots with coco take 1.25 gallons (roughly) every day to get the run off Iām after. Might have to go twice per day.
Run off is important, you need run off to get rid of the salt build upā¦ this is part of the reason so many people get lock outā¦ā¦

Could the fabric pots filter most salts if the plants are nutrient feed from the bottom of the drain pan 
, I donāt know the answer but I think itās a great question ? Iāve been on this air injection type method that Iām really liking the results from how healthy and strong my autos are growing in this grow .
I simple rigged a flat air stone to anchor under the soil with mess like material so the dirt wonāt clog the air stone and that allows oxygen to the roots and to help the soil dries more evenly from the top and the bottom sort of speak and I been only feeding nutrients from the drain pan and only pour in ph water with an average of 400 ppm from the top once a week , but mainly I pour in the drain pan and just let the air stone bubble it as the plants absorb it , I donāt really know if itās something all that great but itās been working pretty flawless and easy for me . I have not used more than a 2 liter bottle to water or feed with yet as of now and itās been 60 days plus for the big auto which itās design pot is a bit different than the two younger autos on how I done those two pots , but they both are working excellent for the watering thing as itās been the most easiest Iāve had to do yet this grow and much less water and they still growing like weeds lol !
