I have read a few grow reports. But I want to ask. When is to much. I am on my second week of flower and I feed my girls 24 ec. In 2 weeks tone I will as I always do on 28. I don't get burning. However is feeding then to much. My last girls ended on 30 before 2 1/2 weeks of flushing. Of zero ec. Is this to much??

Watch what the plants are doing they will start to tell you when it is to much...

My thoughts exactly.

 

Different plants will respond differently to the same treatment. Watch what they do and how they respond and modify your actions according to that.

Running ur e.c too high will inhibit water uptake which will in turn inhibit plant development. I normally follow the nutrient brands recommendation ,some give u good guides for different stages of growth. Normally by the time u get tip burn uve been well over doing it. I'll check the ec daily, and if it's climbing too quickly ya know it's too high(for recycling). Regular flushes will also prevent nutrient build up in ur medium and give ya a bit more leeway...peace....devil

thats some good solid advice right there.

 

not to mention over ferted weed doesnt taste as good, and over ferting can also lead to other problems like plants herming on you etc.

Less is more sometimes. You can overfeed anything. You don't want your plants to be obese afterall.

[forgetiwashere]

overfed big fatties arent for me. mine need to be like a proffesional boxer. fed exactly what they need and nothing more, i like mine lean and punching above there weight. one hit should be a knockout

I reckon you would need CO2 for anything over 2.0 E.C. to get any real gain.
