So how high is you PPM going in for feed? Do you have to ease back from what they recommend using?

I would think you would want 600 plus the 326

Well I usually use a hot soil so my ppm’s are always off the chart anyhow but when I do start to feed them I do start out at at least 1/4 to 1/2 the recommended dosage and then I build on that

Cause you would still want 600 ppm of nutes not stuff in water I would think

See I would think if your goals are say 700 then you only want 400 of nutes cause you already have 300 in the water to start.

That’s sort of how I look at it and that’s why I start low and see how the plant handles it because unless we get our well water tested we don’t know what’s making up those ppm’s that’s in it

But those are still nutes.

But it’s probably not nutes it might be other minerals that do nothing

All this nute stuff confuses me

Lol it does me too @Cyle1 lol when I started my first grow my head wanted to :exploding_head: over the ppm’s

I’m trying to find my Home Inspection sheet when we bought the house cause the VA loan requirements are testing the water as well as 10 thousand other things lol and I believe that report has the water break down.

Either that or you could take it to swimming pool supply place or your area water treatment they should be able to test the water for you. I’ve never had mine done I know mine has a lot of iron in it
