cos' i live in Asia, so i cant buy any brand of fertilizer that you used, therefore i also cant follow the concentration that you suggested.....:wall:
no matter what i have bought a fertilizer solution , its' 〝Directions for use〞is to water it down to 1/1000,if i follow its suggestion , the PPM is just 60~80 , is it too low ?My plants have grew 1.5 months,some thread is told this phase needing 300PPM or more,so shall i break the suggestion of 〝Directions for use〞？
pls give me some advice or experience.....
p.s. i use distilled water,the PPM that i measured is ZERO.

60-80ppm is very low. Just use a lot less water. The recomended ppm for maryjane grown in soil is 400ppm after plants are 3 weeks old then 600 for veg and about 1000 for flower. My tap water is close to 300ppm because of all the crap in the water. I use tap water for my plants but I add Pond Water Detox and it removes all the bad stuff like chlorine, chlorimines and heavy metals. I keep the distilled water for myself! I forgot to add if its a sativa it wont want as much fertilizer.
