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?

Orange leaves getting worseWhat the fuck is going on with this plant? I spotted some nute burn last week so I got advice off here and flushed it out. Once it needed watered again I went with half the recommended nute dosage and now it looks like it’s getting worse. What the hell can I do?

Should I add nutes? If so, with my Fox Farm soil, how early should I be adding said nutes? Fox Farm seems to say everything i need is already in the soil..My 5 gal cloth pots are layered with approx 1/3 Cali Super Soil (bottom) and 2/3 Fox Farm Ocean Forest (top). I assume when the roots reach the super soil all nutes will be supplied. But what happens until then? Should i provide nutes until they reach the SS and if so what kind?

Nutrient burn?I believe I overfertilized this week. I am using a four bucket DWS system with Reservoir bucket. This is the last week of my veg and I might’ve been heavy handed with the fertilizer. At one point my solution was 1844 ppm. I usually run itbetween 8 to 1200 ppm. I delutedd the solution in half. I didn’t have time to change it all because the lights are going out. Do you think this is nutrient burn? Thanks
