Safe DWC EC levels

These ladies are at day 38 flowering and have been going strong at 2.4 ec I’m using TA nutrients and according to my GHE feeding schedule at week 6 they should be going from 2.4 - 1.6 ec however this seems drastic as plants seem perfectly happy. Any advice?

So it's an ~8wk flower I presume. Plant really doesn't need so much DLI at the end cycle therefore nutrients either. Seems to check out. The full nutrient set does not affect to the end product otherwise than spoiling taste - in most cases.

Some variables exist relating to light cycle modification and such environmental tunings.

Looking GOOD

as long as the ec is stable day to day keep at it.if it starts raising like crazy then you are giving too much

Some conflicting advice here although I hear what you’re saying according to their breeder (I bought clones) they have a 9 week flower I’m down to 1.6 and will see how they react

It was starting to raise to about 2.5 however after replenishing reservoir back to normal levels
by lowering to 1.6 am I missing out on yields? Conflicting advice here :confused:

Sorry I didn't mention one thing. I see the reason it was left out.

I live in the understanding that plants can't use the nutrients at the last weeks. I'm unsure of it since I haven't looked into it.

if your ppm is stable then you are getting the max from your nutes. if its rising slowly she is eating max and rest is just staying in the pot and making it more concentrated its bad but its still perfect yeald.
