If you add your nutes and the ec is too high then add water until you lower the ec to proper levels or use less nutes to reach your ec. Cheers

Dilution would be the only option. Are you shaking up your bites very well before use? This can give inconsistent results.

EC value
Hi again! Found this EC table on RQS, according to this I should have an EC of around 2.2 this stage. I feel like this is a bit high. I checked other grows on this forum and I don't see many going over 2. What are your thoughts? Thanks!

problem with Advanced Nutrient GroMicroBloom ! I took a photo, I hope you can see small particles from fertilizers in the water!!
I have a problem with fertilizers!! why are some particles floating in the water on a new three-day solution similar to those that have settled on the walls of the pot! that is why some kind of sediment and brown flakes and small particles that float appear on the new solution!

How to use Hornet Coco A B
How do I mix A+B coco feed nutrients from hornet hydroponics? They have no instructions online or on any of the packaging, should I just use another brand to make an estimate? Link to nutes: https://www.kitbagshop.co.uk/product/hornet-coco-ab/

ph Problems
I have always used tap water in a big bucket that I scoop from to water. I am using Root Farm phDown. The tap water is 7.6 to 8. If I ph the bucket the ph rises again within a day. Is it Root Farm or should I ph only the amount I need per watering? Do other ph down's do this?

I am writing to enquire about if any of you used water from banana peels throughout the life cycle of the plant, is able to provide (NPK) the required demand of seedlings and avoid deficiencies in later phases because it uses rainwater ??Thanks in advance

a friend wants to start with his first plant. Unfortunately, he doesn't have much budget. And through the Corona eruption, he has to work with what he has. As soon as he has the money, he absolutely wants to switch to the right additives. Is it possible to use one of these.
