The cal/mag can be applied in a very light amount every time or every other time you fert. This may be dependant on the hardness of your water. You just don't want to overdo it, because it can lock up your plants. However, when applied correctly it will heavily bolster the weight of your pods, and make them thicker and crunchier. If you overdo it, the leaves will be wrinkled and grow oddly. They might be twisted, or curled, or have large bumps.
Big bloom should also be applied simultaneously, but you can be very liberal with it. I'll go through 2 gallons of big bloom before I go through 1 gallon of Tiger bloom. Big bloom is also perfect for seedlings.
Make sure you add plenty of water before adding fertilizers (especially calmag) as it may render the nutrients unusable to the plant if ferts are mixed alone before adding water.
My best results are achieved by fertilizing lightly, but at a higher interval for soil plants. For my coco plants I fert slightly more heavily, and usually do 2 fertilizations, followed by a light watering the next time the media drys out. This helps prevent salt build up and the PH from dropping too much.
If you notice nutrient lockout or burns, flush the pot immediately with 2 to 3 times the amount of the pot with water. Continue with a light fert the next time the soil drys out and things return to normal.
