Dutch: It's 250w. I will get the water cooled cool tube eventually, I just don't have the 275 to drop in it right now. Probably next cycle. Since this is the tallest of all plants, I went ahead and bent it over and tied it down. My theory there is two fold: One..expose the middle of the plant to more light(it's pretty bare in that area). Second...to get it farther away from the light. Now they're all the same distance from the light: about 10"

Rusty: Ya I just found that last night, but not sure how to interpret the schedule. If I'm reading it correctly, then I should have fed them 25-30ml (almost 2 tablespoons). My confusion is: is that every watering/feeding every day, once a week? dosage per plant: 4 plants would come out to 100-120ml for the whole water formula? Or dosage per total water formula? Also...I have read that it's best to administer half the recommended dosage, does this hold true for coco and organic nutes??

Also, during the "Transition" period, it calls for 15ml of veg 15ml of bloom(which I already have, just haven't administered). So is that the two mixed together? Again, per plant? My watering method is to prepare about 4-5 gallons of water, balance it, and water all plants. I'm preparing more now obviously to continue with the flushes, and once that balances out the PPM, I will resume feeding with bloom. This time keeping the coco hydrated. Please excuse my ignorance or just flat out stupidity in this matter, but looking at the feeding schedule just raises more questions for me. Maybe I'm making it too complicated than it is.

You had mentioned that PH stress and underwatering will cause problems in the upper canopy. Well that's the rub...the upper canopy is fine, the problems are occurring well below the canopy. Does the same philosophy apply? I've been testing my PH for the past three weeks and it SEEMS fine, but my PPM runoff is off the charts. Need to stabilize that and water MUCH more.

I have to search more to find out what good PPM levels are. I have no idea what they should be, but I'll find it. I just know they should be lower than they are, and need to be watering more than I am. Does anyone know how to reduce PPM in tap water??? Mine comes out at 600.


Thanks so much for the replies! I really appreciate everyone taking the time to read my lengthy posts.
