Well best amd probably only way is to have an ec meter. Ppm's are converted numbers from ec thats measured and differing from manufacturer the ec is multiplied by 500,600 or 700 to get the PPM's

Salt nutrients
Hi folks! I can get my hands on Yara Calcinit 15.5-0-0 and a base salt with 6-18-36+3MgO. Does the MgO make the epsom salt redundant? And what are the NPK ratio's I'm aiming for during veg and flower? I have seen and read so many numbers, not sure what to believe anymore. Thanks!

How to control EC
My EC is higher then recommended or I'm reading it wrong. I have been told to add water to my reservoir to lower EC, yet with my well water the EC is already high. Can someone help enlighten me? Using a hydroponic circulating system (DWC with a top feed).

Does anyone else use apple cider vinegar to PH the water? Someone said not to use any vinegar bc it evaporates faster than water and gets back to neutral. I read online the opposite and it makes great ph Down. I also find my plants both in my tent and my windowautoflowerishealthy

Substitute for liquid hydroponic nutrient solutions
Those solutions (like Hesi Hydro Growth) seem to be ridiculously overpriced, like 10€ for 1 liter fertilizer solution which consists of mostly water itself is a total ripoff in my understanding. Is there a substitute for those heavily overpriced nutrient solutions?
