Im using shogun nutes and read on here numerous threads about not needing to go over 1.6 e.c so have never been over 1.6 e.c

https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/e...icon|calmag|sumo-active-boost|pk-warrior-9-18

That is a shogun calculator that tells me to go all way upto 2.4 e.c, im wondering if im not pushing my plants to full potential only going to 1.6...

Any input and opions be great thanks only beem doing coco about a year now

Ignore the labels and feeding schedules for nutes. Go by common sense, experience and how plants are responding. I’ve yet to see great plants on here running an EC that high.

Pictures in normal light for better advice. Very hard assessing under HPS.

You push your plants to their full potential by keeping them healthy from start to finish. Overfed plants are not healthy.

Plants look fine. Possible heat stress showing but nothing related to feeding.

Room temp doesn't tell the whole story, HPS is suppling a lot of IR as well.
Hold your hand under the light at canopy level. If your skin feels hotter than it would in direct sun on a nice summer day, raise the light.
