Here's a question that I think I know the answer too. But I am not 100%.
DWC, do you add your starting measurments; TDS, ect. to your tageted levels or subtract or just ignor them?

The starting tds of your water is included in your total tds of your nutrient solution. For example if your water is 120ppm starting and you want to mix nutrients to 500ppm then you can only add 380ppm of actual nutrients. This is why some people prefer to use ro water in hydro. I adjust my feed according to what my plants look like rather than measuring ec and all that though. A lot of factors in the environment contribute to how high or low of a nutrient dose your plants will want.

Yes they are in! Thats why a lot of growers start using osmose water , the PPM or EC can now be taken by nutrients the plant is asking for.
Happy growing!

if what you add is at same dose (ml/l or g/l etc) then it stays the same. "TDS"
it is a weighted average... add the same concentration, it stays the same concentration.

m0useanswered grow question 3y ago
are you asking if you add up numbers to make your ec/ppm quota?
example:
reservoir has 300ppm
top up feed has 400ppm
and together they make 700ppm your target range. and you want to know if this is how you do it?
or if you just add in 700pm
is that the question?

Hydro - Ec stable, Ph dropping - Raise EC instead of lowering it ?I have the feeling that when there's not a lot of nutes, PH drops but it means I have to add EC, not lower it. I noticed this when I fed them with a very low EC. I added more EC and they ate a lot right away. What did you experience ? Has to do with them eating all cal-mag ? THX

Can coco loco soil use liquid nutrients? Or does it not need it?If I’m using Fox Farm Coco Loco soil, do I need to add nutrients? I’ve read somewhere that if I’m using coco noir, I might be better off using hydroponic nutrients? I purchased the fox farm liquid nutrient trio soil formula, but haven’t used it yet since I’m not sure.

Foliar sprayI want to introduce some epsom salt foliar spray for Penelope and two clones I have in veg at the moment. From what I understand around 200-250 PPM is a good range. What is optimal PH for foliar sprays. How often can it be used?
Or what can I use as a habitual spray?
