I'm hoping for the definitive answer as to whether the base-water ppm are included in the Total or not ... my base ppm is small enough it wouldn't matter, but I am curious ... I'm new at this, but that's how I've been reading it ... :smokin:
the image reaper Reviewed by the image reaper on . Base PPM and Nutes Something I haven't been able to figure out is... Lets say PPM of tap water is 200, vs RO water which could be 50... if wanted my PPM to be 400 for my reservoir, and Im using tap water with a base of 200 already, Then I would only be able to put as much nutrients in to make it 400, right? But if i was using water if a base of 50 PPM, then I would have 150 extra PPM of nutrients? So does it slow down growth by using water with a high base PPM since you can't add as much nutrients? or Rating: 5
