I know that the recomended ratio for bulking is 50/30/20.

yet how much carbs should I consume in every meal?

since the summer is coming soon I wont have time to cut after I bulk therfor I dont wanna take an excess amount of carb that might turn into fat.

If I eat like 50-60 gr carbs per meal -6 meals. (except last meal of the day, which I eat like 20gr ), will it be enough for my muscles to grow slower than optimal bulking but without adding fat ?

I'm currently 130lbs / 6% bf, ecto.
I've made myself a bulking menu with about 2650 cal and 45/35/20 ratio. :read:

i think you should try to keep all of your meals the same ratio, but if you really want to reallocate some carbs, then make your last meal before bed primarily a combination of protein and healthy fat . don't forget that your muscles need carbs in order to grow outside the gym, and you need the carbs for energy to hit it hard in the gym. if you were to gain fat, it will be because you ate too many calories and that came come from eating too much protein, carbs, or fat.
