Solution application?

Im sort of confused about how we are supposed to apply our solutions. For example, I’ve watched Eric’s videos on Facebook and those instruct us to alternate between WCAP and FAA every week during vegetative growth. However, on the app, in the “leaf” column, it lists both WCAP and FAA. So which is the correct way to do it? Should we alternate between the FAA and WCAP weekly or should we apply both of them every week?

FAA carries simple amino acids that help leafy growth. (Cho's Solutions, p. 1) Cho's recipe book says FAA enhances crop growth in the vegetative period when used with other Natural Farming materials. (Cho, Recipe, p. 51) WCP gives structure and helps harden a plant against pests. (Cho's Solutions, p. 1)

Cho's nutritive table sets FAA at 1000 (4 mL per gallon of water) and WCP at 800 (5 mL). (Cho's Solutions, p. 12) The two can share one sprayer. (Office Hours Ep. 39, 30:11) Office Hours says to spray weekly and alternate through the nutrient cycle. (Office Hours Ep. 112, 31:35)

The library does not say whether Eric's weekly swap or the app's both-together listing is the right pattern. It also does not say which stage columns list WCP.
