I thought total dissolved solids on my meter were in ppm. I can read E.C. and TDS which is read in ppm on my meter.
I am using a Milwaukee 3 in 1 TDS/PH/EC meter but I calibrate for TDS because I have a lot of that buffer solution. My probe is the sm02 which can read PPM all the way to 4000.
That kind of rocks.....mine only goes two about 3000
Reaper tds=total dissolved solids
ppm=parts per million.
and as Jeff says...for hydro purposes they mean the same thing. His IS low.....he's leaving out the ppms (or tds) of what's in his water....is using tapwater.
right, sorry ... I said 'TDS' when I meant to say 'EC' ... I know that the EC type units number differently than the PPM-type, like I bought ... that's what was confusing me, I was wondering which scale you were referring to (I shouldn't ask questions like this when I'm toasted :D)Quote:

Well mid day on their 18/6 cycle and things couldn't be looking better. I need to trim and take clones soon because they want to offshoot out of the sides like crazy. I will have to wait a day or two to do this but already have the rapid rooter and top.
Tub 1 ate 50, yes 50 ppm last night and 4 LARGE cups (12 oz) of water. I topped them off with nutes and water and went up another 20 ppm.
tub 2 ate 20 ppm and about a cup of water but the root mass is smaller in the plants and there are not as many in the system. topped them off as well and went up another 10 to bring them to 60 ppm.
here is where both stand:
210 ppm for tub1
160 for tub 2
I am mid-way through week 2 of veg.

Getting crowded
Yeah.....you better send all those to me and I'll take care of them for you. :D
Haha! To bad you cant send clones in the mail.:D
Hell Ya, They have really Jumped:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Don't forget what you are adding now, ( write it down in a log, record everything!!!) It's real handy to be able to look back & have something to compare with in the future!!!!
Great Job, Keep it up,_/^\_,:pimp::pimp::pimp:
