I am in week 2 of flower currently giving 2.5ml per litre Canna A & B.

And just started adding 1ml per litre of cx hydro potash & Headmasta.
Regen a root & Mighty Growth has also been used throughout the whole process.

Only to find that the ec has rocketed from, the usual 1.6 too 2.0-2.2.

I also ph the solution after adding nutrients.

Is this going to kill my plants??

Please help....

hard to say exactly what happened, but if the ec is too high, your plants will drink just water, raising the overall ec. If it were me, I would drain about half and replace with ph'd ro water which should cut your ec in halfish. Week 2 of flower I would have ph 5.8-6.0 and ec at 1.0-1.2 personally, but each strain is a little different in what they want. Lots of other factors in play too.

My water is .4 My total EC is 1.3 in veg. I ran some strains at .8 in flower. Depends dude. Whats your plant telling you?

I am currently on Canna Aque Flores. at 1.3 (.4 below reccomended) EC thats water and nutes (I dont use "boosters") After I supp calcium. Thats IT. canna boost is the ONLY thing else i would use. Canna contains alot of goodies. my two cents..

If she asks for more Ill give her something.

First thing I always say to check is your power supply to your meters. Low power throws pens and meters way off wack. Possibly a dead meter.

1 - Is the batteris dead?
2 - How's the humidity?
3 - How have you been doing since the this thread started; any changes?
4 - How big are your plants/root masses?

..and a pic would be helpful, but of your "grow" (plants), not a close up of an EZ Clone site.

hey, i cant give you any advice since I'm a newbie but the great "Al B. Fuct" used canna on his food and drain table and this is a quote from him
"All 4 of my 125L flowering tanks get 450ml each part 'A' and 'B' when mixing new tanks every 2 weeks, aside from 15ml of pHDown and 125ml 50% grade H2O2 on mixing, per fresh tank, with the H2O2 reapplied every 3-4 days. No muddling about with a teaspoon of this and a smidgen of that plus one tenth of a cap of another on day 16-28 or anything like that. Same mix every time for all tanks. Anytime I dip the tanks with the Truncheon, it's 1260-1400 (narrow as the Truncheon resolves). Nutes are something that I rarely think about and don't really want to. 3-part nutes would drive me barking.

Only deviation to this single 450ml+450ml in 125L recipe is applying Canna's PK-13-14 to plants in wk 6, 50ml in 125L along with the regular nutes... and I don't always remember to do that. Does help keep them from becoming P deficient in late flowering, though."

but he would also only did that on clones for a sweettooth #4 strain he ran for years&years. sorry if this doesnt help but he used canna as well so i figured it might
