if the plant isnt performing like you want id check your ph meter as this is a dead giveaway if something is a miss, 2.8 is a bit over the top but if ph and ec is rising this is a sign she wants less feed
drop her back to 2.4 if she is taking in more water than she is nutrients then its a sign your out of range with ph or your over feeding, last thing you wanna do is mess up at this stage of the grow (no pressure)
you want to keep her feeding healthy and happy untill the pk week and then you can hit her hard because the week after you lower her base nutrients anyway so she gets plenty of time to recover
their is no mention of what ph your on but id aim for 5.9, if she is pulling from her reserves and taking on more water something is a miss in the res just my opinion though
looks like the topping paid off (sound advice)

Hey Seymour.. Good to hear from you man.. Thanks for the sound advice.. You know it's always welcome bro..
So first off.. My pH pen should be fine as it was calibrated 4-5 days ago... & her pH is @ 5.8-5.9 always.. when it creeps to 6.0 I drop it again... Getting to be a couple of times a day though.
Now I wouldn't say she isn't performing like I want as she is really budding up nicely but it's all at/above the canopy..
The EC's... Yeah had me perplexed somewhat... She has been showing little splashes of Cal Def.. Not much but seeing that & her pH creeping up made me think that she wants more feed.. But yeah the EC was always creeping up too mate... Seems I've ways to go with DWC yet. I dropped her down last night to 2.4 EC & her pH was at 5.9.. By this morn she had drank around 2.5L & her EC was @ 2.6-2.7... 5.9pH still. I added back with .6 EC & she was at 2.4 again. Should I take her down again to 2.2 & monitor?? I'm not sure if she has shown any more cal def overnight as she was starting to show a little more these past couple of days.. Starting to get it on her bud leaves grrr!!
Yeah the topping worked a treat mate although I don't think it done me any favours in the light penetration dept.. Man she is seriously thick & bushy like uber dense... Lol.
One more thing Seymour.. I'm still not completely clear on how to add the PK every other day.. Should I just add it to my add back water?? Also I'm thinking of running superior potash instead of 13/14... What you reckon? :smokebuds:
Looking quite Beasty Kush, wow that is some serious EC!!!
Insert buddy... Yeah I was thinking what's up with this beast?? this is crazy!! She couldn't want more.. I'm glad he chimed in there.. Your gurls are looking ace mate :smokebuds:
lookin' Kushty Dog !:buds:
Hey Vira.. You ok bud?? :smokebuds:
hi kusht, looks like that is a serious piece of growing ! If you are nevous about tie-down just go little and often, you will be surprised how much influence you will have over her within a week or so
with that amount of LED it is going to be FUN !
Tony my fine fellow.. Yeah I gave her a little gentle persuasion yesterday evening after work... I heard a little sickening crack from the stem & thought :no: I'll just let her be.. Lol.
Thanks for looking in man :smokebuds:
:bone:, I know it is scary sometimes, but they take abuse easily (had really much of almost crack) but in a couple of days the place where it was snapped or almost snapped just get thicker and harder 
:dance2:
