I would suggest you read the EI "light" version.
That will address the nutrients easily for you.

As you increase the growth via CO2 gas/more light, by about 10X faster growth rates, you also place a high demand on the nutrients for the plants that are downstream.

So EI light will help take care of that.
The modeling and testing behind it can be overwhelming, but the actual idea is rather simple. It does not take much to do EI.
A set of teaspoons measuring spoons, a few ferts from Aquarium Plants, Aquatic Plants, Planted Aquariums, and Aquarium Plant Fertilizer for peanuts and you will be set.

Go to "article's" tab and look for EI and EI light.
