Here's one mainly for the small growers, growing 6 plants or less. Do you and do you think it's necessary to measure EC? I have never bothered...

Like yourself E.C i do not bother with just use it as makers recommended on the bottle then adjust as i go through the stages. PH i do not do that either self PH ing nutrient puts it to around 7 so its sweet asa nut to me. a lot depends on how you grow also your own experience if you have not done this before learn to watch your plants they tell you everything A little less is better than more same goes with nutrients getting lots of different types generally ends up in confusion and damaged plants keep it simple goes a long way

Hey there,measuring ec is only necessary when you use mineral nutrients..when you grow organically bio nutrients you can’t measure ec Ec stands for electrical conductivity and you measure the concentration of mineral and salts in your feeding So with bio feeds there are no minerals so you don’t have to check it I hope this was of some use to you Happy growing and stay safe ✌️

Yeah when I am changing a recipe I will test it to make sure things are as I think. Next time I wont since its not going to change much same stuff. PH every single time get that coco in the right spot for those plants in the medium they are growing. I do not play with PH had those problems once dont want to do that again.
