Good PPM for feeding Autos, 2nd week flowering.

What's a comfy place for me to be for PPM for nutrient feeding for Autos (2nd week flowering)? Currently for the chart I've been following I end up at under 400PPM but have been bumping it to 450. Can I go a little heavier?

Don't double or triple your formula. Underfed plants still produce nice big buds. Overfed plants do measly. Underfed still a big harvest, overfed you will have a small harvest. Less is best, live by that... Cheers

That's sort of what I was thinking, Ezzjaygrows. Most of what I see (since this is my first dance) is that you can get away with 600ppm with autos. I did lean a little heavier on the Flora Bloom since I think that the diagnosis of Potassium/Phosphorus deficit is spot on. Also, when I ramped up the Bloom last week a bit...one plant went from yellow green to a nice happy darker green. My thought is to double or triple my formula but then water it down to ~600ppm.

Personally, I would bump it up.. I think you can easily go to 600-650 comfortably without too much worry of over feeding. Right about now is when they need those vital nutrients to pack on bud

Using GH Trio, Water PH is solid at 6.5, PPM of un-amended water is 215. With nutrients I'm up in the 370 range which I've been bumping up to about 450ish. Should I be going a little heavier? Mid-plant yellowing that showed up on two plants last week was decided to be me not applying enough feed (Potassium/Phosphorous)...I've adjusted to a newer feeding schedule that's heavier in those areas...should I go a bit more? Feeding every other water now.
