day 1 with cuttings/pre veg clones

Strain: purple og, bubba, blue dream,fire,and triple

Medium: Soil Foxfarm Oceanforest

Light: 400 watt hps, Xtrasun Hood and Ballast, 24hr light cycle

Nutrients: Floronova grow and bloom and Liquid Karma.
I watered this morning with the Karma but thats about all I've done with nutrients so far.

Im curious to see what everyones water and feed schedule is as this is my first indoor grow. Any tips or pointers are extremely welcome and wanted.

There’s no need for nitrogen fertilizers at first
So according to foxfarm there are quite a lot of ferts already in the mix, veg nutes should not be necessary at first.

so yeah the karma stuff should do the same as FF's BigBloom or whatever they call it. TBH you probably don't need this supplement but it may help.

You will want to start them on a low dose of nutes, basically follow the directions on the back of the bottle or use less.
Be wary of using more than directed- this may cause nutrient lock up as the concentration of salts in the soil becomes too high. If anything err on the side of underfeeding them, it is a lot easier to cure a deficiency than to remedy overfeeding.
The first symptoms of overfeeding are usually burnt leaf tips.

So to sum up, use as per manufacturer's directions or less, also don't feel you have to use all the expensive supplements and stuff they try to sell you.
