1st if you have enough money to get some distilled water from the supermarket get it, if not in a separate res. fill it up and leave it out for 24 hours. it will last you for 2 weeks in your res. that will solve your ppm problems there.

2nd the best i used was the 3 part general hydroponic nutes, floramicro 5-0-1
floragro 2-1-6, and florabloom 0-5-4.

and if you can get 1 of those kerosene pumps ( electric pump ) so that you can remove the old nutes every 2 weeks, mix your new nutes in a separate res. and fill the plants with new nutes. total time 5mins.

right on thanks bro ..... good idea about the extra pump ..so I have to change it every 2 weeks for the whole grow...wow ok I see that nutes. comes in a quart size how srtong do you have to make it how long a quart last for 2-3 changes? just wondering how much this is gonna be in the long run....thanks for your help

the floragro 2-1-6 will be used the most out of the three, the most i had to do was 120ml, mind you my res was big
