I fish local low stock gravel pits of about 15-30 acres.
These waters are stocked with F3 carp every year and hold a low/normal stock of 10-24kg fish. Only a few over 15kg.

I can only fish work overnighters there and I tend to bait up whenever I can. As a rule randomly 1-2 times a week.

What is your opinion on baiting up after an overnighter under such circumstances?
There are not many anglers on these waters and they tend to fish other swims as me, so I cannot waste their spot by overbaiting.

Does it make sense to bait up after fishing when I cant fish for 1-2 weeks at a time?

Is it a waste of money and resources/bait when I throw in 1-3kg of bait per spot after fishing and dont fish or bait for another 5-7 days?

Or should I rather only bait up more heavily once 2-3 days before fishing?

Best idea as always is to find fish and not try to draw them in with bait (which is rarely working). But albeit at the moment I dont have time for that.
