In the last two weeks here I am using GH micro at 2 tsp per gallon and Kool Bloom at 2 tsp per. PPM comes out at 2220 in 25 gallons of nutes in the Ebb and Grow. This seeems like too much, what do you think?
thanks

i think its 1000 ppm to much, but i have heard of people going up to 3000+. just remember you are going to smoke some of that.

That's if ya plants don't turn to ash
I never get over 1500 that's on a strain that I know can handle it
as for most others 1200 seems like a good ppm for me

Thanks for the help. I guess I can't go by the recommendation on the bottles. If I do the 3,2,1 it's way too much.

Damn y'all sure do like them high numbers!

I never go over 650 ppm on my OG Kush.

Got eight girls in the tubs in veg mode under 18/6 and they only get 375 to 400.

650 when the lights go 12/12. And I only use 1 veg nute and 1 bloom nute. ph down and water.

thats what's in my reservoirs, nothing else.

I'm partial to the flavor of my herb, not the nutes.

Ive cranked my girls up to 3200 ppm without any major issues for weeks in flowering..

Its all about genetics, and environment.

In my case I run co2 with a 1k light.. so it metabolized the nutes much faster.

But, i wouldn't recommend cranking it up like this..
