Yes it matches up with leaf patterns. Nute burn would be on all leaf tips.

as far as a flush goes, do you recommend doing enough for like 20% runoff? maybe more?
3x the size of the pot is what I recall. So a 5 gallon pot would be 15 gallons of water. Though that might be soil only.
The real way to know when to stop is with a PPM meter.

I've got lights on in 30 minutes so I'll grab some full pics and start the flushing process 
PPM is amount of salts within the solution
PH is the acidic or base level of the solution
PH is on a scale of 1.0-14.0
PPM 0-9999

The ph meter is used to measure how acidic or alkaline your nutrient solution is and the ppm/ec meter is used to measure how strong your solution is. Hope that helps
Thanks to google.ca
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) are the total amount of mobile charged ions, including minerals, salts or metals dissolved in a given volume of water, expressed in units of mg per unit volume of water (mg/L), also referred to as parts per million (ppm).

ahh I see. I'll have to read up proper on PPM. and invest in a meter! lol
When doing a proper flush you check PPM going in and get your run off as close to the same. Then do your light feeding afterwards because you don’t want to leave a stripped soil
In soil I do a full feeding after a flush, corrected for whatever the reason was for flushing. In coco you can probably go light since you're watering all the time!

well since I don't have a PPM meter I'll run with the 3x the volume of the pot. 9L flush then 1/4 strength feed. should I PH the flush water?

hey shed, when growing in coco do you feed with nutes every watering? or every other?
No need as long as your final feeding is pH'd. And I'm a soil/ProMix grower, but in coco some feed every day and some do other variations like nute, water, water. Some manufacturers have different recommendations as well.
I run promix as well but I still feed everytime! I’m a very light feeder though and I haven’t got any nute burn yet. The girls this round are happy healthy and full of Joy!
I'm in ProMix mostly these days but I treat it like soil and feed it every time I water too. Probably not as light as you but we do have a completely different set of grows!
Very true! As every plant is different as well

Hey y’all! I did my nute solution with 2.5ml micro, 1.5 ml gro and 4ml bloom with 2.5ml calmag. I checked ph and it was reading 6.58 so I’m using this ph down to try to correct it but every time I put 1 ml into the solution I knocks it down to 2.8-3.8 :/ any suggestions?
How much water are you starting with?
