Well no level particular, just using a Blend I think will do Nice. Ph Perfect sensi coco grow A+ B, voodoo Juice,just a Lil Sensizym, B-52, Cal - Mag ( in case) for Veg. PH perfect sensi coco Bloom A + B, Will get big bud soon. May also run Bud Candy for flower. I have Rhino skin, but read it will raise PH? When I get the hang of the nutes, I may throw some in. So I know I am running the Hobbyist lvl, but have a couple items extra. I read people using a line up I am using with great results, but also read it is best to use a whole line up and not tweek it? Only time will tell.
Just a heads up don't mix brands with PH perfect. PH perfect range use a chelating agent (Amino acids) in their nutrients to achieve the "PH perfect" technology. If you mix other brands with AN PH perfect the amino acids can attach to the other branded nutrients and make them more available to the plant.
Other nutrient brands may use lower quality raw ingredients and have not taken the amino acids into consideration and will cause you problems.
Please be aware of this when adding Ca/Mg because these are elements targeted by AN for chelation.
PS: What PH are you actually running ? You plants look a little stressed. And AN's PH perfect range isn't so PH perfect in my experience Not to mention they change there product description all the time. Youtube PH perfect technology the old videos explain it as having a PH agent that adjusts the PH for you, it doesn't.
PPS: AN PH Perfect REQUIRES you to use RO water. I think this is because again of it's complex composition it will make the elements in your tap water more available to your plants and throw your mix out further. Is this the truth ? Sounds viable but I do not know. I do know I have 350ppm of calcium from the tap before I even start and AN don't gel with our water what so ever. I work for a busy hydro shop and we sell little to none locally but lots online for this reason.
Good luck,

Ty Brotha. Awesome Advice. I will Lower the PPMs and water more oftenUnlike many others, I couldn't care less about what bottles you use or what you pay to accomplish this job.
What I do see is a very, very small plant receiving higher ppms than it needs. You are over feeding and that's why the plant looks ill. It was not "lockout" from using the cal-mag plus. Calcium Nitrate, Magnesium Sulfate, and Iron EDTA are compatible. Add 2ml/gallon to some RO water to establish a little hardness and stability to the water before adding your nutrient program and you'll have no problems. A 0.8ec is perfectly fine for young plants in coco (400ppm on a 0.5 scale or 560ppm on a 0.7 scale) and right now you're running somewhere between a 1.0ec to a 1.42ec depending on your meter. When the plants need more elements they will let you know, until then just keep it mellow and make sure you're solution is in balance with the plants needs.
Plants are not animals, and "plant food" is not food at all. It's more like vitamins. Eating 10 Centrum Multi's doesn't make you any bigger or stronger. It just kills you. Or your plants in this case. Plant food in the way animals use food is Carbon Dioxide and Photons. Plant poop is Starch (carbohydrates) and Oxygen. Plants take in the light and CO2, using it to fuel their chlorophyll and create energy. Carbon is also used to build plant cells, so the more carbon present the more energy the plant can make (as long as it is in balance with the light available), growing more rapidly and larger in a given time frame. The nutrients we provide compliment the CO2 and light the plant is receiving, each of which needing to be in balance with the other to maintain healthy growth.
5ml/gallon on the A+B, 5ml/gallon on the B-52, and 5ml/gallon on the Voodoo Juice is fine right now. Just get 20-30% runoff at each feeding and this will repair the cation exhange in the media. Flushing with plain water in coco is not advised. Always use some nutrient solution with a good ratio of elements, even at a low level, when you're trying to course correct. Flushing is reserved for harvest. Rinsing with a balanced light solution is the right way to get your plants back on track and make an unhealthy media hospitable again.
88f and 40% humidity is REALLY bad news for seedlings. Those weak and immature root systems are working their asses off pulling in what little water they can get in them to stay cool. The leafs themselves are sweating to keep the little photosynthetic energy factories from "melting down." What you are working with is known as Vapor Pressure Deficit, and your room is not healthy. Particularly for this time of life. A 78f and 65% RH would be HUGE for your plants, allowing them to spend what little energy they have on generating new growth and not spent trying to keep cool.
Best of luck.
Have you read the ph perfect manifesto? Cause I have and what makes ph perfect isn't amino acids. They chelate to a wider ph range allowing you to no have to adjust your ph. Also not being able to mix brands is a marketing gimic so you'll only use their products. When I ran advanced I had my best results using multiple brand additives. Some brands may not mix.
You Get Bigger, More Valuable Flowers From Sensi Bloom
Now enhanced with amino acids,Wet Betty, H-2 Humic Acid and F-1 Fulvic Acid, Sensi Bloom is the 2-part base growers have long turned to when they want an easy formula that leads to bigger yields. Sensi Bloom is fast-absorbing, concentrated and tested only on the plants you grow so you get way more value from your harvests. Get Sensi Bloom now and get bigger harvests.
you are misunderstanding of the way ph perfect works. With ro water and advanced ph perfect doesn't mean the solution will be 5.8-6.0 the elements are chelated to be more available in a wider ph range. So if anything adjust your water before mixing. Also the concentrations will also change your reading. But it shouldn't be too drastic. Its designed for lazy farmers. Lol.
DabKing, My Brotha , you were Super right in saying I did not feed Enough before. In return for not feeding enough of the AN PH Perfect Sensi coco A+B, not enough So My BD did not Thrive. Now she is On a Rolll. I am Feeding 3 Times a Week at 600 PPMs and i think she wants More...
