No idea. Wish I could help. Sorry
Any pics? I see you feed 1.2 ec and that's ok. I rarely go above 1.4 EC on bloom.
What is your ph?

I'm assuming you are on 12/12 and no pistils? Or still in veg lighting? Some plants will show pistils in veg, some need more dark time. Also, clones or from seed?

So this Rollercoaster of a grow is done. I wound up making the switch to 6 &9 with 2 of coolblooms.they ran an extra 3.5 weeks . But in the end I was blessed with a bountiful Harvest of over 6 pounds. I don't know why the Jacks kept my plants from flowering, but as soon as I switched to gh they blew up.

That is weird. I just recently changed from Advanced Nutes to Jacks Hyro and the difference has been huge in a super good way.

It just wouldn't flower for me mabey it was a bad batch. Either way gh came to save the day 6.4 pounds out of 3200 watts
 
IMO Salts are Salts does not matter the name on it, but for me its the cost that does.. Also i would say stick to what works for you. .9 g per watt is good happy for ya!

Could be temps, humidity lack of tlc or just a shitty pheno tbh

The way I read this thread, the op pulled 6.4 pounds he was pleased with. As I look at some of the recent comment here, I find myself wondering what I missed.
