ok guys I am just starting with GHE 3 part nutes and am very confused.
if you look at any GHE feeding chart they roughly recommend something like 0.7ml/liter for all 3 parts in vegg

However for me to reach an EC of 1200 I had to add 4ml/liter micro and 2ml/liter bloom
I know I have left out grow, but ignoring that fact, still this seems very weird. For me to reach the desired EC I want I need to add like 5 times more nutes than the manufacturer recommends and as you know the general rule of thumb is half strength to recommended manufacturers guide is good.
Is 5 times stronger than the manufacturers recommended amount right?? I could do with some input on this... Remember my EC is 1200 with a ph of 5.9. Unless my truncheon is broke.
Has anyone else found charts from General hydro stating all kinds of different amounts ( I have found 7ml/4liters and 7ml/10liters which is a considerable difference depending on either european charts or american charts) but even those figures are far too low for me.
