The feed chart recommends 2.5 ml foliage pro and 10 ml bloom for weeks 2, 3 and 4. I use 2.5 ml foliage pro and 7.5 ml bloom during that period. The higher level gave slight nutrient burn probably due to the high ppm in my tap.

I agree that those feeding levels are high especially for not using your RO filter. The plants will uptake what is available and starting with high ppms in addition to high feeding seems like a precursor to potential issues. Do you water with those levels every time or alternate with just your tap? I’m guessing you alternate because your plants don’t look unhealthy and feeding that high constantly with every water seems like it would cause problems.

I’ve been running Dyna Gro for a while now and my plants would definitely burn at those feeding levels. And I’m running co2 @1000ppms with a burner, undercurrent rdwc and DE945w cmh so my grow can handle higher feeding levels.

I tried a lot of different things including using only foliage pro or grow at lower ppms. The feeding chart levels produce amazing flowers that have a lot of terps. My light from the LED is very intense as well.
I know that this is what works best for terpene production, thc and yield in my system. The chart that dynagro posted works very well. My plants did not like the lower ppm feedings compared to the chart.

You know your system better than I do but one thing I noticed about your plants above is that in your first pic, probably day 30 or so, all your fan leaves have faded and will start to drop soon. In your second and fouth pic you have no fan leaves left. Fan leaves drive production.

HB, I've been experimenting with this new trim method of growing, saves tons of time. What used to take hours to trim a tent out now takes me about 2 minutes.

Yes I did cut foliage pro early on those. I have pics of a different run in week 5 and they are still green. Those pics are over the last couple of months and I'm posting them worts and all as I am getting prepared to start a journal. You will see plenty more from me and I may revise my feeding as I go and dial in this room. I am mostly getting a feel for the board right now and seeing who is who and making friends with the good people on this site.
Feel free to chime in with me as I have a lot of flaws in this grow but I have been putting in a lot of elbow grease to get it ready to show off. I will take a couple of pics tomorrow morning of how things are looking now.
