So they were doing fine until you whacked them with Bud Blaster or PK
I had a buddy that just switched back to soil because he couldn't get the flavor where he wanted it even with adding teas every other feeding.
Yeah the pk. I guess I don't understand how to use this feed chart. Because my ppms are through the roof when I follow it. Plus I haven't been getting run off.
Am I supposed to add additives first to my res, then add coco a and b until it reaches the target ppm?
Here is the feed schedule. I measure ppm with a blue lab meter which is ec x .7. I am starting week 4. I add coco b to my rez and then coco a. My ppm is at 1800. Then I add each additive, using all of the ones on the chart, which leaves me at 2600 ppm. The target ppm on the chart is 1200 which sounds more reasonable to me, but that is not what I am getting. The chart has been changed to add pk 13/14 during weeks 3-6. I also have been adding that. I tested runoff and the ppms were so high that the meter couldn't measure them. After flushing each tray with about 40 gallons, the ppms are down to about 2400 in the runoff.

Thanks guys. I was thinking I would just keep watering with a and b at 300 ppm until my run off was the same. Is that a good idea or do you think I should just flush some more?
I have flushed them so much that I am a little scared to flush anymore.
