I watered daily with coco. Water till 10 to 20% runoff. Might have to water twice a day in late flower.

I'd get rid of that male unless you want seeds. You can move it out of the room and collect pollen to be used later.

You can try to get your pots / bags up off the tent floor great a air gap under them warmer dryer roots makes a healthier plant .

I'm running the same setup as you. I was running Luca's formula which was 1:2 ratio, last autos went up to 4 ml micro 8 ml bloom but all that did was deplete my nutes. I recommend going around 2-3 ml of cal mag, only give it when you see deficiencies, but you're running a blurple with coco so you'll need cal mag every feeding.
What I do no, less wasteful, is 2-2-2(ml) for micro grow and bloom, then when in flower 2-2-3 so that an additional 1ml of bloom in flower. less is more in this case, they don't need much. Daily watering with runoff and runoff is collected and disposed of

Don't waste your money on calmg with 3 part. Micro has Ca. Bloom has Mg. Up one of them if you need more of one of those. Feel free to try out their schedule but I never liked it. See if it works for you. The 2-2-2 you saw earlier is one of the alts (equal % of all). Useless (turned way down to 700-800 ppm - run week 3 all the way) or stuff like Lucas are some of the others. Running the Maxi series is better on the wallet if looking at Lucas ratio's tho but has less control like 3 part. There are more out there if you want to dive deep.

given that he has already purchased the trio, I was trying to accommidate to his OP. I've run almost all the alternative GHE schedules and the Lucas, and nebula haze's mix. Autos are so finicky, and I still get burn in mid flower at an ec of .8 and above. I completely agree with the fact that the 3 part isn't the best at all, but it's reliable, it's tested properly, and most of all accessible. I have yet to run maxi series but I'm definitely with you on the fact that there are better options.

Running LED I found that they do need supplementation of cal mag esp in coco.

No point to buy more bottles when you run 3 part since it has it split up in 2 of the bottles. Whole point of GH 3 part. To adjust the ratio of the 3 if you need more of something like Ca (micro) or Mg (bloom). Kind of like running Kool bloom when you can just up the bloom for the same effect.
3 part is great. The stock feeding schedule isnt so much.

you just saved me a lot of $$ if that's the case. I hate blasting unnecessary liquids in, esp now. I just kept getting severe rusts spots under 220w of led.

Just to further the point. Here is an example of a schedule that up's the micro for Ca instead of buying and running Calmg. This is another alt schedule for coco DTW. I have used this and it works just not my cup of tea with all the extra stuff. I choose to use 3 part and 3 part alone if using it.
Basically all the other bottles have the same exact chems in it minus the floralicious. Nice if you already have a ratio you are trying to hit before hand and can't do it alone with the 3 bottles. That would be the only time I would advocate for doing something like that.
I will add 6-4-4 is killer for veg.

would you start gradually or full concentration as listed ?

6-4-4 on week 1 is around 630 ppm if i member right. I forgot what this tops out at think around 900 maybe 1k. Sorry it's been a couple of years and tons of nutes since i have ran it. That schedule works good for what it is. Geared more towards people not weed/nute savvy in the commercial market. Full blast c02 rooms and tons of lights. I would back off a little. Easy to follow was the point of it and to ditch the stock schedule. I would run this over the stock schedule any day of the week tho if looking for an alt.
On a side note: you have to be careful running certain Calmg (like botanicare) and micro together. Micro is heavy on FE already. So is certain Calmg formulas. Add this on top of starting water and you will get to the upper limit of 5 ppm pretty quickly if you aren't careful and start to have problems.

I assume a filtered water would be best starting ppm no more than 150. I just go with what's simple, and what works, and let the genetics express themselves as best as they can. wining awards on GHE trio has been done before though
