When I'm d/c mining I tend to apply the "correct" strength of charge to my seizmic charges.
I deliberately ignore at least one high-strength fissure so that, if necessary, I can under-charge it if I need to add just a little bit to the overall yield, and nudge it solidly into the blue-zone.
In my experience, overcharging seizmic charges will increase the overall yield by a lot but it also seems to create a lot of spikes in the yield, which means it'll be harder to get the yield solidly into the blue zone - it'll either be spiking down into the yellow or up into the red.
Just wondering if others are finding this, or whether people happily stick high-strength charges into low-strength fissures to create a big boom using a minimal number of charges.
