m0useanswered grow question 7 months ago I feel your self assessment is accurate and the tip burn means they getting just a bit to much, This is a sign to back off the feeds a bit or it will get worse. Don't need to pannic and flush or anything just give it time to use it up and make a note it wants less then that you give it.
I find it easy to monitor my feedings solution with a TDS pen, then I just dilute down the feeding solution to whatever EC/PPM value I desire. EC is better vs PPM as it can be all over the place depending on the model of pen and where its manufactured for. eg. 500ppm=1EC or sometimes is 700ppm=1EC but 1EC=1EC in almost every scenario.
Good Luck!
