Hi all. Im in week 4 of flower. Genetics consist of 2-M2, 1-edens apple, 1- sundae punch, and 1- crazy cow, all from elev8 seeds in 3 gallon pots. Im in a 3x3 tent with a fc4800 led, ac infinity exhaust, passive intake, 3 fans and a exhale co2 bag. My temps are around 70 in dark and 80 when light is at 75% power. Humidity stays around 55.
My plants are in coco/perlite. I feed them about 900 ppm every other day phed to 5.9, 6.0.
I checked my runnoff today. Ph varies from 5.3, to 5.8. But my ppm is around 3500, even 4800 in a couple of them. Do i need to flush? I do not see any burn, or deficiencies, but i cannot imagine 4800 plus ppm runnoff is good.
Im really worried as tjis is a critical time in flower production. Thanks.
Added: I use Mother Earth Coco and perlite mix.

You should be feeding daily to runoff, at least once per day, but twice per day would be better once your plants get used to the increase. I would feed those at 6.2 ph and 1.2 ec. Don't flush with fresh water ever. All you need to do is to start feeding a slightly lower EC to 20% runoff-the runoff will fix your situation.

I have been watering every other day, approx .6 gallons per 3 gallon pot with no issues. I kinda knew I would have to water daily probably week 5-7, but I cant imagine watering 2 times a day...I would be going through nutes like crazy.
