PPM

Wscook07
Wscook07started grow question 4 years ago
when I mix my nutrients my PPM is only 120, When topping off my res. the PPM is at 40 & Drops to under 20 before topping off again. I have already burnt my plants a week ago but is that enough Nutrients? I cut it from 2 ml/ltr to .5 ml/ltr because of the burn (Advanced Nutrients)

Normally if you are seeing the EC drop the plants are taking more food than water which is telling you to increase the feed a touch. I tend to step up in small increments until I see the ECppm sit pretty stable. If I am feeling brave i increase the ppm until I see a touch of tip burn then back off a touch to insure I am giving them the max they can handle. Some people leave the ppm when they see a touch of tip burn and leave it there and actually call it ‘a perfect burn’. I tend to find in this game less is actually more👍
