Plants look good.How do the plants look? How well does the soil drain? And why so much cap mag and epsom? Are you running R/O water?
I mean should I keep feeding them though? I'm at 2700ppm. That seems like I am heading towards lockout if I keep reading the levels.I wouldn't change anything yet. Soil run off isn't a good metric of what's going on. They look good. Height and color and width. Looks good.

Not trying to argue, grateful for the help.I mean should I keep feeding them though? I'm at 2700ppm. That seems like I am heading towards lockout if I keep reading the levels.
Jesus, don't fertilize every time you water. Fertilizer isn't 'food'. Light is. Plants can only use fertilizer to the point that they have enough light and CO2 to use. I have some ten footers right now that I have fertilized just five times since April. At most I would fertilize every week, and I'd be shy about that. The nute sellers are motivated to sell you more nutes, and you need much less than they advise, in my now over 40 years of experience.
Okay Thank you.No don't feed each time. Wait for rapid growth to feed again.
Well I've been feeding every other watering. I guess I can cut it down to every third watering.Jesus, don't fertilize every time you water. Fertilizer isn't 'food'. Light is.

Dunno how often you are watering, but that's likely still way more than they need or want.Well I've been feeding every other watering. I guess I can cut it down to every third watering.
Honestly I stopped feeding for a week and my plants almost died.Dunno how often you are watering, but that's likely still way more than they need or want.
