    FloraNova and additives

    This is my first grow using floralicious and diamond nectar. The schedule from GH says mix nutes then measure and adjust to desired PPM. Then add the additives. If I do this the final PPM is about 2200 after the additives. Seems too hot. I ran that way for a few days at first but the plants...
