You know I was thinking to myself something like hey self, if plants drink much more in flower than during veg I probably should be flooding my buckets mire often than the 4 hours I have during veg as I'm supposed too keep my medium 90 - 100 percent saturated therefore if they drink more the medium is in fact drying out faster, depending on how I feel I'm flooding every 2.5 - 3 hours with 1400 ppm and keeping a close eye after every feeding just waiting to see the first hint something is overdose, however running 1k ppm c02 and how large my phenos are I'm highly sus I can feed them even higher dose of nutes than I do but being my first grow I'm going to keep it at 1400 which is only 200 ppm above my nutes recommended dose, quick research also shows me I'm not alone when it comes to hydro and coco coir 1400-1500 ppm Is far more common and recommended than I worried it wasnt.
I'd listened to too many people specificly on this forum tell me to feed not at the 1000 I was recommended too and only feed 600 ppm, being new and sus that nute companies just wanted us to use more of their nutes i used "bro science" of seems legit and it's no wonder I was getting the deficiencies and needing to foliar the way I was before flower.
Enough of the bro stuff and back to the science aspect of things, I even called the grow rep from lotus nutrients and shared my photos and was absolutley at minimum told to run that high ppm.
Haters turned to crickets, frost developing & buds fattinging up more daily with 5 weeks left yet, auto and clone department, flower department check check and checkmate.
