If the runoff is lower than inflow, either the medium isnt wetting evenly and you're getting dry spots( which should correct after a few fertigation events) or you need to increase because they're using everything.

Trimmed the front 2 as well. Here they are after:
Amnesia is still bushy lol. Also, the NCH is looking really good. Seems a lot more sturdy than my first one.

They're definitely sucking up a lot of water. The runoff from the front two crept up. Inflow EC : 2.2, NCH runoff 3.3, Amnesia was 3.0. A little salty... lol
Gave closer to 30% runoff last night.
This am, NCH runoff is 2.7 and Amnesia is 2.5
They otherwise look good. I'm still impressed with how stout the NCH is. My last one yielded heavy, but the stems were softer/more flexible.
Yo jay looks like runoff is extremely high I would flush and feed 1.2 ec for a couple of days.View attachment 1102118

I think its cause they're sucking up so much water, they're drying up the medium 'too much' @ 2x a day which is causing some build up( despite 2-2.25liters per plant every 12hrs lol)
Doesnt seem to be hurting them yet.. That small, drier period is probably good for them ( to an extent)?
Ill see what runoff is like tonight. If its stuck or rising, it might be worth doing half EC as you suggested until the runoff is better.
I cant believe they dry out the coco in 12 hours brother..
Ive had a grow I fed 1200 ppm instead of 1200 ec (1.2) cuz of a stupid chinese pen... Anyway they seemed happy af but week 3 flower they stopped pistil production and turned brown early. Symptoms were just a slight N toxocity but no heavy nute burn signs.... At this point even flushing didnt help and buds didnt swell. 100*100cm scrog with 6 weeks veg.... Supposed to bang 500g.... Got 200g ugly fluffy bud... Potent.. but crap yield.. dont wanna see a friend going through this tbh mate

The pots are way lighter 12hrs later lol.
Interestingly, my PPMs are around 900 which isnt that terribly high ( considering most ranges say 900-1400ppm in flower).My water boosts the EC into the 2s but since its largely due to the calcium content of water, im not sure its as big of a deal in coco.
Here's a side shot of the NCH:
They look super happy ! And shooting pistils as they should!
Maybe the strong QBs help with high nutes intake... I would still flush though! Just because of the high runoff ec you dont want any nute lockout at this stage its irreversible. Ao we better have 1 - 2 days with half strength nutes. I would flush PHed water to 0.8 or so followed by a normal feed (2.25 liters u said?) Of no more than 1.2 ec.. watch the runoff closely and decide your next steps... I like to bring down ec on the last week of nutes, prior to the last week flush were i just feed unphed water.
This is all only from my experience brother. Not a pro grower. All the best!

Its definitely the next step homie. I didnt monitor EC at all last grow, so this is new lol. At least gives some guide?
