Hi. I would like advice on why my plant is acting this way. My leaves are HUGE. Growing more every day. But production of new leaves is non exsistant. To put it more realistically they are growing slower than my established leaves. Should i prune the big ones off or...?

I just use tap water and some local nutrient supplier's hydro nutes.
My tap waters PPM is around 600 so my DWC is running around 1000ppm with the flowering plants. I'm yet to see if that affects the taste of the peppers but hopefully will know soon with the first on their way now.
