feed feed feed flush feed feed feed flush flush feed feed feed feed flush flush flush flush flush that should be 8 weeks ive read that 800 to 1200 ppm is the g spot feed = water mixed with nutrients ph at 6.2 flush= plain water phd 6.2 to 7 depending on your run off ph run off= water that runs off the bottom of the pot after you feed them nutrient water solution. runoff ph shouldnt be lower then 5.8 . If 5.8 flush with 7 if 6 flush with 6.4 if 6.2 flush with 6.2 .

If you tank runs low just empty it out & mix new solution at the desired PPM.

Ah! I see where your going with this, that was my question when I first start growing.
The answer is: your plants will tell you when its had enough, go up in 200 or 300 PPM per week. If the plants show signs of nute burn go back to the previous PPM rate. Just dont get silly & go up to 3000PPM.
Get to know what your plant/strain likes for example I learnt that my Blueberrys prefer 1000PPM max when at its peek.

You need to analyze your run-off in comparison to your input water, and we need to know more about your soil/setup.. There is no magic recipe for all plants/setups no matter the guy at the hydro store says..
And pH problems and burns usually look different, but not always depending on what happens in the soil.. pH issues can also appear like nute defs.. Take a gander at the charts regarding nute availability vs pH, salt ratios, temperature and other variables..
