Naaaaah don't be scurrrrred it really isn't that bad. At this age 1000 would be fine and I would bet you see a pretty big overnight increase. You don't want to burn them, but unlike soil, you have to give the plants EVERYTHING THEY NEED. Keep your PPM moderate, but I mean I put seedlings in 500... Just remember, you won't necessarily see deficiencies if you are under nuted, your plants will just grow slower and smaller. 
Of course I am really high though.

They kind of look like they want to be fed more. The droopy leaves like when you overwater a soil grow.

You call that a good schedule? It is nowhere near specific enough... I'd never start flowering with a 2.0 ec level. That's asking for overnute.
Overnute in flower, and you're f**ked... at least in terms of yield. I feel there are too many people in this thread wanting to impart 'advice'.

I used the schedule right when I switched into flowering and its been giving me some fantastic results. 2.0 ec? what is that in ppm? 1400 or 1000? when i switched to flowering I was well over 1600 didn't have any problems with over nute. the last week of vegging I think i was up to about 1200-1400 so the switch didn't affect anything. take a look I think the chart is good. After all it did come from the company that makes the nutrients!

(third pic is the first day of week two flowering) Are you saying maybe I would have more yield if I started flowering with a lower ppm?

EC is what ppm's are converted from. EC is the correct way to measure your plants, not PPM.
I use advanced nutrients. They have a chart too. i did take a look. there's not enough information on it. So you start flowering with 2.0 ec which is EITHER 1400 ppm, or 1000ppm, depending on who's converting it?

I do not guess katie will mind us hijacking her thread while she is gone, but your plants look nice. you are doing well. one mans ppm is another mans ec....

yea true that didn't mean to jack the thread. my bad.^ nd im from the US nd ppm is our standard, In the netherlands I believe that ec is your standard units. I know they are only different by a conversion factor (just as inches are to centimeters).

1400 ppm converts into 2 EC. check it out. Convert EC / PPM measurements

I know I'm drunk right now, but it just seems like any tom dick or fucking joe will post in katie's journal cause she has boobs. I'm mean wtf, I could have the best fucking journal in the world with the most informative type of shit, but if I don't have boobs or an avatar with a nice ass no one will notice a damn thing. So knowing that most of you fucktards that will post, just cause she looks good in an avatar and you have no fucking clue and are just so fucking hard up that you think maybe by some form of fucking luck you'll get a nice young azn girl to acknowledge who the fuck you are. I lost my train of thought, but whatever, you guys know what I'm talking about. If it ain't fucking helpful, don't be the wannabe dick that you're trying to be and just shut the fuck up and let people who are gonna post with information that might actually be helpful instead of some gay ass shit that has to do with absolutely nothing about anything that anyone is talking about. Or some out of the shit nowhere type of shit like, "oh I'm doing the same thing too, check out my pics, cause I'm too much of a pussy to start my own journal". I love 90% of you guys and the rest can see me on monday about the fistie cuffs. I'm not scared, what? I'm done hijacking her journal about her grow.

I really wanted to say that myself. Thanks gyp.
PPM's are converted from EC... doesn't matter where you live. EC is the standard for measuring your nutes. PPM's are merely guesswork... which is why there are 2 standards for ppm.
