Hey guys I am using growth technology ipnic coco bloom with canna boost canna calmag advance nutrients big bud atm, my ph is 6.0 which is ideal but I noticed my EC is only 1.3…. I am using max dose everything listed in week 2 in flower… should I worry about the ec being so low or is that an okay ec for flower? I will be adding advance nutrients overdrive last few weeks of flower to finish off, should I up the ionic coco bloom to up the ec to atleast 1.5-1.6 would that be a better option for yeild? Thanks

sure they will do fine even with 1ec but you will lose almost quarter if not half the weight depending on your base nutrient formulation.

it all depend on your grow condition, if you lack of light, your vpd is not tuned and you dont have supplemental co2 you will probly stay below 1.5, closer to 1.3

So keeping at 1.3 throughout the whole grow is a good scope.
I also have a bluelab EC pen so reading will be bang on !!

If the plant looks healthy and are not showing signs of deficiencies, there's no compelling reason to raise the EC.
Higher EC does not equate to higher yields.
Many here never exceed 1.3EC and grow healthy, productive plants.

^ This

The plant should be your feed chart, if they look green and healthy keep doing what your doing, if they start fading or looking yellow increase, if they look too dark green or have burn reduce feed, really simple doing it that way vs scratching your head and reading feed charts.

Strange thing this morning. Made up 20 litres of feed. Water had sat 24 hours to declorinate. Checked EC with billable truncheon and it was up at 1.8 so had to dilute with roughly 9 litres water. Brought it down to 1.4 and a PH of 5.9
Thing is I don’t understand why it would be that high an EC as I followed the canna coco feeding chart.
