Ok im confused..I started flowering like 3 weeks ago,plants were veged for 10 weeks but they had alot of stress so they are like normal grow 5 weeks maybe I guess,first grow..So Anyway,week 3 flower,there wasnt much to choose in store for flowring type so I got NPK 20-40-40,5ml to 1 liter of water..Now I dont understand one thing,so I was thinking im gonna need to use 4x times less nutes to be it like 5-10-10 or 10-20-20,so I put like 5ml (1 liter dose in the 5 litre bottle I use ) and look at PPM,my stock ppm is like 300,so with 5ml added I had like 400 max,so I was like wtf,ok I added 2x more,so thats like 66% of the dose,my PPM was like 600 max,so full 5 litre bottle was like ~13-26-26,so I was like how in earth 13-26-26 and only 600PPM? Last nutes I used was like 3-7-4 and giving full dose was like 1k PPM+,how 3-7-4 PPM is higher than nutes that are freakin 4-5x times stronger?? How many of the nutes I should give a plant,and what do you think,I gave my 13-26-26 dose just today and im starting to think if it wasnt too brutal overdose,they didnt have strong nutes for some time since I had N overdose..but I didnt have normal nutes for about week or even more,was watering not very often lately,maybe I should skip now like week without watering and then one only water watering and then more like 10-20-20 dose? What would you suggest.Btw 600+400w hps.
