Been about a month now into my bulking phase. Gained some decent size. Sitting at about 190 right now. Im getting in about 3000 calories. 240g protein 240 carbs and the rest healthy fats. I was wondering if 3000 is sufficient for my weight to keep bulking ???
My other question is as i get more weight and more mass.. wont i need to increase the calories even more through my bulking phase. Im trying to hit 210. Of course while keeping my 12 percent BF.
Thoughts ??

You have to answer that based on your maintenance caloric intake.
When you gain weight consider redoing the math to get an accurate total daily energy expendature.
As far as if 3000 calories is sufficent, you need to ask yourself by considering what percentage you are over maintenance because as long as you are over, you are good for bulking.
How much you are over will determine how "lean" your gains are
I suggest weighting yourself and measuring your body fat at the end of each month or even two months to recalculate what needs to change in your bulking diet.
