Don't listen to krondizzle, he knows not of what he speaks. The best piece of advice i have ever gotten in relation to coco is to check the ppm before watering and then check the runoff. If it is lower, the plants are eating. If it is higher, you need to lower your nutes or even flush. I like heads coco deal, but there are some problems. first off, do not flush for two weeks, that is crazy. I do not want to argue with anyone about flushing, but two weeks in coco is insane. Also, you may want to keep using the brown. If you do not have the plants schedule dialed in, you could stunt them by taking away the brown. Even if you know the plants schedule, they could get behind for some reason, then the lack of brown would hurt them. mostly, listen to your plants.
Using the GH line and coco, I would recommend using Grateful Head's Coco Formula, as it was specifically designed for use with coco.Veg - Mid Flower Formula (Feed this formula from early on in veg till week 5 or 6 of flower6ml micro9ml bloomper gallon of nute mixph'ed to 5.8 - 5.9Feed this formula with every wateringBloom Formula: From week 5 or 6 till flush15 ml bloomPh'ed to 5.8 - 5.9per gallon of waterFlush: Just plain water for the last 10 daysThis is just a rough outline I'd read up on it as there's a little more to it. Use this formula and you won't have any problems with feeding in the future.

Don't listen to me? Kiss my ass, I nuke fried my stuff simply by following directions on the bottle. If you want to fry your stuff, go ahead. Have at it.

That quote in your reply is from mikeyboy2121. Re-read my statement. I stand by it still. Don't over fert your shit or youll be sorry.

FYI, if you do your homework like I do, you'll notice I grow in water, not dirt. I have re-read my post just to double check, and I think you called BS on the wrong guy. My statement is solid. Don't over fert. You'll pay. I followed the instructions on the bottle for gro, micro, and bloom and came up with a 2300ppm mix. I was like WHOAAAA no no no no NO!. I dumped the entire batch and had to make a new one using 1/4 strength to keep my ppm within reason.
