Hey all, im going to explain my watering/feeding routine and i want to know what am i doing wrong, any pointers and tips and suggestions that could help me would be really appreciated. The plants look healthy but some of the tips are turning and brown and crisp on some of them.

My plants are in 5th week of vegetative stage and are in 19.8 Liters containers. I have been watering them every 3-4 days and feeding them every single time. The nutrients i am using are Pura Vida Grow (6-4-3) & Bloom (2-6-6) and im using the aggressive two part formula so for my vegetative stage i am giving them quarter strength 4ml/2L grow and 1ml/2L bloom + 3ml/2L of Growzyme and for Flowering i will be giving them 4ml/2L bloom and 1ml/2L grow + 0.5 ml/2L of Advanced Nutrients Big Bud + 2ml/2L of Adv. Nutrients Liquid Carbo Load (Sugar) + 3ml/2L of Growzyme .

I would like to know how often i should flush them and whether i should step up my nutrients or not as well as how often should i water.

All comments are appreciated.

You might be over feeding from what you said. crisp tips are a good sign. sounds like your water schedule is right on. you might back off on feeding every other or every third. those burnt tip will stay the way they are so watch your new growth.

I don't know the in and outs of your nutes. you might of over shot your nute once and got a little burn. Pic's would help me and others try to help you. I don't think it would hurt at all to feed every other. I feed every watering with the stuff I use. it has a very low npk and is also a hydro nute. I grow in a coco blend. Every soil setup will need twicks. I've also used stuff that was every 3ed at 1/2 mix.

As long as you use 1/4 strength on the food (full on any supplements) and adjust ph you can feed every watering. In fact, the plants prefer lower strenght nutes every watering rather than full every 3rd.
