SuperRamastarted grow question 3 years ago

Si la EC es muy alta tengo entendido que se puede bajar agregando agua con menor EC, pero no cambiaria bajaria demasiado la cantidad de nutrientes al diluirla con agua nueva con EC menor ??

It would dilutes your ppm yes - if you have a 500ppm solution 1L and add more water your ec and ppm will drop (as long as your water going in is of a lower ppm). But the same amount just not concentration of nutes will remain.

Nutirents for hard water Question regarding the correct fertilizer amount. Advanced Nutrients. If my water already has a high EC of 0.75 I use less base fertilizer (Bloom A+B). But do I also reduce the amount of additives like Voodoo Juice and Sensizym, etc? Is there anyone here with experience with AN?

Hello community! I broke 2 branches this week. The first one happened by accident when I was draining the runoff, and the other when I was bending it.And today I came across a video where the author explains that silica can cause brittleness of branches. Does anyone have experience with silica and have you experienced anything like this? I add potassium silicate with each watering, at a concentration of 15ppm

Exit EC in peat and perlite Variety of opinions in the landscape with regard to watering to run-off when growing in peat or coco and perlite. Of course that makes testing exit EC a challenge. Asking for opinions - are the EC meters that have a probe to read substrate EC/salts any good? Is that the solution?
