Did some searching. It's starting to sink in. I guess 003 is darn good. :confused2: 500 to 800 is good for the run off in an organic dirt grow?? Did I get that right??
I got nothing, don't know nutten about no ppms...organic rules.ha
Just wanted to say hi Bongo.
I hope I didn't offend you with my country language above.
If I remember correctly, you are in organic soil? then your readings will vary from plant to plant because the elements are not equally dispersed in organic mediums and nutes, but more so in the liquid nutrients but not soil or amendments. In synthetic nutrients, everything is chelated, balanced, and mixed to not interfere with each other while in solution. Everything is raw in organics and is not equally chelated.
There's not anything you can do about that. You just sort of guesstimate until you get used to figuring it. That is what I call cifering.
Unfortunately, different makes of TDS meters use one of the 2 algorhythms for measuring TDS. I use a Hanna TDS and I believe it uses the 500 scale. You have to go to the manufacturer site to determine to scale.
wow, I don't use a ppm meter just yet in my grows trying to still keep it simple, but that just gave me some nice base info about it and how it works, I'm bookmarking the info in my brain for later use. Haha thank you.
That sounds like a plan but you will need to keep giving them some calmag throughout the entire grow. I use it until I get within 3 weeks of harvest, then I cut the amount in half for another week or 2 depending on how the plants are doing, then I cut it off about a week ahead of harvesting as its not needed at the very end.
