DWC Feeding Strategy

I'm growing in a DWC setup. Should the ppm be adjusted daily to keep it in the recommended range or should I feed once per week topping up the water daily instead?

Sounds like I've been massively underfeeding. I change the res once per week and was adding nutrients then and only then. Sometimes once more if I thought it was starving.

Top the res every two days at least. If EC has dropped, top with some premixed feed. If EC has risen, top with pH'd water. I've found this to be the best way to keep it at appropriate levels and it also seems to extend the time between total res changes.

You can change your reservoir water for new nutrient-water every one or two weeks, but in the meantime they need to have the reservoir topped off with pH'd nutrient water at 1/4 strength. Gl with the setup
