Cool I found this: http://www.4hydroponics.com/convertPPM.asp it will convert EC to PPM or PPM to EC If I'm right and that site is right then ( 700EC ) Would be ( 490ppm )

ok, so can you tell I'm new at this? so I thought the DUTCH NUTRIENT FORMULA chart would have been in PPM, but taking a look at the chart its in EC.. I Uploaded the part of the chart that I'm on because I'm only in Veg stage.. should I fallow this chart or should I just stay average ? I dont no...

Thanks Hushpuppy, and everyone... Now that I have the ec-2-ppm chart and have set my Hanna dist 4 to 2.0 to give me a 1000ppm I'm able to use this chart to keep track of what my babies like... I'm at 600ppm and my girls are smiling... if there smiling I'm smiling :) Thanks again!

they are in a 5 Gallon bucket DWC and have been for 1 week, I see about 6 to 7 long roots on each plant touching the bottom of the Palls, and tuns of small roots also... I have taken it down to 400 ppm just in case... But could you have a look at my post #9 and let me know if I did the...

Very intrusting, that chart is a keeper, One good thing though I never over nuted my plants :-) So if I want to get my nutes up to 400ppm I need to have my EC reader say 0.80 according to the chart "Hanna DIST 4"...

Ok I have a Hanna DIST 4 EC Tester - Without dipping it in the water it reads 0.00 - Dipping it into the water it reads 0.22 ( Dose that mean 220ppm? ) ok, so if it reads 220ppm and the plants are young I want to bring it up to 400ppm, Do I add 400ppm of nutrient solution A&B Grow? or do I...
