Coco doesn't like straight RO flushing always flush with diluted nutes 500 ppm works for me 600-700 ppm max for auto's. It is almost impossible to over water coco it holds perfect air water ratio at full field capacity watering. So a dry back happens way faster then you think you shouldn't let a coco pot get dry enough that it takes more than 10% of the volume of pot to resaturate. I have found if I don't give my plants enough water near the end they are dry as fuck and dry way faster gotta remember the plant is putting on most it's weight the last couple weeks which requires water
Heres the harvest. I reckon it wouldve been roughly 6 ounces.
This is all great and dandy. The only reason I brought this up was to say that these genetics are inferior. I know most people don’t read all the way back to the beginning so I’ll just reiterate that I’m pulling things back even further next grow. I’m not gonna push my nutrients. I’ve learned my lesson. And with all that said, fastbudz are inferior genetics. I was very excited about the harvest because of terpenes are amazing but unfortunately they died at the firdt sight of lockout, it’s just unfortunate that I haven’t been taking pictures regularly for you guys to see. I don’t think you guys understand how quickly it died. As soon as I got locked out It was dead within a week and a half. It’s unfortunate that I don’t have pictures.

Oh I know I’ve been following along you may have had just a bad seed plenty of folks like fast buds their not that bad. There is a lot worse that’s for sure they wouldn’t be in business if their genetics were that inferior. By the time signs show of the lock out it has already been happening for a couple weeks prior it takes time for things to show in the plants. By the time you see issues your already playing catchup
Don’t let it get you down plenty of folks have same issue and bad grows it happens to the best with good genetics. Not every strain and seed is a winner there’s plenty of duds. What you like the next person may hate

I'm sure you learned a lot from this grow that will help for the next and future grows. Checking your runoff once a week can prevent lots of issues and also tell you if they can take more feed. Everybody on this thread are good growers and helpful dudes 
I did learn lots. Im not going to overfeed these next guys. They are mephisto, but ill probably only go to 2EC. Wont try for 3, wont push the lights. I wont push anything. Also im switching to advanced nutrients line, i really like how comprehensive their sensei line is. I think you offered a feed schedule earlier? Ill take itI'm sure you learned a lot from this grow that will help for the next and future grows.

Its a toos between sensei, connoisseur, or sensei coco. Sensei connoisseur is on sale. I know the coco line is ideal but its 2x as much. And i can just run cal mag and give a supplemental iron to make up for the ion exchange properties of covo. I know its not quite the same but it beats almost 2x the price at 120.
So AN nutrient line
Big bud
Overdrive
Calmag
Bit of iron
Superthrive for vitamin B
Possibly - kelp, fulvic, humic. But AN has it in sensei already
Bud enhancer - for triacantonal and other growth modulators. I think it belongs to fertylab
I'm a big fan of the floraflex stuff. 2ec is still overdoing it. More fertilizer and light doesn't make bigger/better plants, healthy and happy plants does...
Use their “tasty terps” for that…formerly called nirvana.
I’ve found I don’t need additional calmg or ph adjustment with AN products as long as I start with RO water, and don’t add any non-AN products to the mix…. Their b-52 is a good b vitamin…
You will keep repeating past results until you listen to the people with experience, that keep saying this is too high.
I use connoisseur and really like it.

Also, I use AN’s tarantula, voodoo juice, and piranha for beneficial microbes and fungi for the root system. They’ll help the plant build bigger healthier roots, and use the nutrients more effectively. They’re worth the extra expense in my opinion.
….and Bud Candy to feed those microbes…
