Organic grow with no added nutes...we don't care about ppm. But if you deplete soil and then feed it the FF trio or another feed, the plant has very ready to use nutrients and will take up too much if offered too much
So start slow after flush. Got it. I appreciate the feedback. I'm trying to study more about the plants uptake. So thx.

Kool Bloom is unbalancing your feed. The trio has all you need. If you want to use some bud candy that is OK....but cut the kool bloom. The ppm is high, but unbalanced and causing problems.
If you go by the back of the bottle it will tell you to add so much but when mixing with other nutrients u end up over feeding bc the other nutrients has a lot of the same stuff kool bloom has

Makes since now. & I sure did give it the max amount thinking they would get even bigger. In reality the buds were already big so I fucked up. Just trying to fix it before it affects my harvest. So thanks for all the feedback. This wont happen again.

Flora Series Feedcharts – General Hydroponics
If u are going to using a variety of nutrients you should look at these feed charts. You will see that the back of the bottle is quite different than what the chart says. In my experience when i read the back of the bottle and gave it what it states,I always ran into problems
I was going by a chart from Mr. Grow it. & I also have the General Hydro one. So I was only using half of recommended on the trip. And I even started off doing the same when I introduced the kool bloom & bud candy. But for some dumb ass reason when I thought I was at end of flower I thought what the hell. I'll give them the max to boost it. I guess because I thought at 9 weeks I was late on starting the flush (or straight water. No nutes) & wanted to give wr a bump. Then I found out Blue Dream can go to 12 or more weeks. Lol. So yeah, you live & you learn I reckon. My next grow I'm going to keep the nutes to a minimum & see how she does. Cheers.
