What do YOU keep PH and PPM around?

I know this really is an open question as i have a feeling it really depends on strain, but i am curious how many folks actually use the recommended nute levels in bloom. In my experience I have to go well under the minimum dose recommended on the bottle (one part).

Later in bloom i hover around 5.8-6 PH and 800-900 ppm. How about you guys?

First time aero here, in one week from clone to 10 inches tall monsters.. (1kw)

Running only 300 or 400 ppm raised to 550 but i could tell it was too high for babys. i lost track off all my clones so its a mix of power plant and cannolope, so i best not over do it

OG Kush #18 coming tho!

For Aero I found that with most strains less is more. I start flowering at about 300 and end up any where between 600-800 depending on the strain.

Try to keep ph at 5.5

it is really strain dependent, i am doing blackjack, aero at 5.8 to 6.1 in second week of flowering @ 1700 ppm, last batch half way thru flowering i was at 2800 ppm. Just have to se what it will take before it(the plant) empties nutes back into the res.
