people with experience in dealing with mandala genetics

are they really as nute sensitive, or should i say as efficient as mandala's website leads on ?
specifically #1, 8 mile high, and speed queen

keeping your room at ideal conditions (50% humid, 70degrees, at least 100watts per plant), with 1400 ppm (+/-100ppm) usually means way more nutes (p/k). the people that i know grow tend to use a growchart from their respective nute line , and use the same npk ratios (with some common sensical variation to different strains) and then adjust the amount fed based upon what it looks like the plants need.

at ideal conditions, with 1000watts on the previous batch of 8 biesel ladies, they were needing close to 40% over what the humbolt a&b line charts were indicating. they tried to burn them at first just to see where to scale back to and they could handle so much nutes in those conditions

i ask because they dont want to start too slow with the nutes for these bad mammas but they dont want to over burn them early to find their limit if they are very nute sensitive
 
i dont like waiting for resposnses so i put this thread on every spot in the forums where i thought an answer might come quik

you dont even know what your talking about, if you really knew and understood what you wrote you would not be asking that question.
 
i dont grow, yet, i know many many people who do who constantly require me doing their grunt work. i know all about ideal conditions , and how to set up a room to achieve them... for the most part i know how to feed a plant and how to gauge whether their burnt or defficient, but i dont grow so i dont have experience hands on and this is a subject area im lacking in. i know what im talking about. my question was specifically about mandala genetics nute sensitivity because they explicitly advocate that you need minimal nutes with their plants and i dont buy it.
 
all that i wrote about our setup was to relate that in the conditions we grow, we yield heavy and require heavy nutes, and that we are very used to pumping our plants up with nutes, and wanted to know if they are really as nute sensitive as their website says so we can get a good feeding baseline once we hit week 2 of flowering when we start using the co2.
