How to measure PPM
Shagrathanswered grow question 6y ago
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

Is it sign of pre-flower? Should I add Bud Ignitor?Hello, is it what I'm thinking about?:P
Should I start adding nutrients from 1st bloom week chart?
If yes - full dose from begging or partially increase the dose?
2 will be added: Voodoo Juice will come back for 2 weeks and Bud Ignitor.

Dutch Pro Nutrition AmountsNew to Dutch Pro nutrients and Im loosing my mind!
1. When week 3 begin I shouldn’t use Grow A/B no longer?
2. The chart says for bloom 250-350ml A/B per 100 L
I use 20L means 300/5= 75ml
Thing is does it 75ml each or both?!Setup. Strain - Autoflowering

Anyone know about biobizz TopMax? (Just read this)Once the solution is made, do not add pH up/down to correct the pH. Firstly, peat based mixes are buffered for pH so this is not necessary. Secondly, the acid will instantly begin to break down the organic matter in the solution, something that you want to happen naturally in theFeeding. Chemical composition

NUTRIENT FOR SEXBUDI've been using just normal plantsoil, after a while in their smaller containers the plants started to get yellow from the lowest leafs.
What nutrient do they need?
I just changed them to bigger pots so it shouldn't be an urgent issueWeek 2

When do you stop giving nutrients?Pictures taken 3 weeks into flowering. Its 3.5 weeks now. Started as pretty basic potting soil, most of the nutrients im sure are gone.
When do you switch to just pH corrected water to feed? Thinking 1 more week for my yellowing plants, and less for my very green one. Thoughts?Week 17

I was always wondering if im calculating nutrient mix right.
For example:
My tap water is 350 ppm.
In late veg i should feed 800 ppm mix.
How should i mix? :
1. 350 ppm tap + 450 ppm nutes = 800 ppm mix
OR
2. 350 ppm tap + 800 ppm nutes = 1150 ppm mix
I always mixed "1" wayWeek 9

Potassium (K) deficiency (Lucas formula GHE)I am trying the lucas formula, on the ghe nutrients. But it looks like one of my plants are now going into a potassium deficiency. Should i start adding the grow nutrient, and skip the lucas formula? Or add more bloom And stick with it? Grow=5% potassium and Bloom=3% potassium.Feeding. Chemical composition

Will nutes degrade if left in the sun for a week?Nutes- If I mix up a gallon batch (fox farm grow big and big bloom) but only use half of that gallon, can I save the rest for the next feeding, which might be a week later? Also, is it ok if the jug is left outside where it will get sun, or will this ruin the nutrients?Week 5
