Humm dude i use a 3 part nutrient myself (Dutch Formula) in a 25 littre tub and with young clones (rooted less then 2 weeks) i only use like 1/3 pf what u´re using as far as nute goes...so u might be feeding them 2 much...what´s ur ppm reading???what age are the clones?????are they in flower already????

Naw, he's not overfeeding. You're giving them 1 ml/gal of each, and I use twice that for new cuttings. If your plants are burning, raise the lamp. A 250w MH should be at least 2 feet above new cuttings to start.

Ouchhhh whats ur Ec reading for young clones 1st weeks???i´ve allways have a real low Ec, something around 0.6..but if u say they can take more i might give a go at it too, loolll cause i allways played by the "keeping it safe" rule hehehe....

I don't know about EC, over here we use TDS. But I was going by the GH suggested recipe of between 5-15 ml/gal, and he's using 1 ml/gal.

I use 2 ml/gal for new cuttings, so I said that I use twice as much.

I'd say Blowback will do just fine, as long as he doesn't fry his girls.
