thank you sir. regarding calibration do we need to calibrate both ph and ec meter again and again whenever we put new solutions in hydroponic or one time calibration will do to test the solution every time we put in hydroponic.
@TheGeekgardener3 жыл бұрын
There is no need to calibrate every time you will the reservoir with the solution. The calibration is done periodically to ensure we get the right readings. Older the instruments, more frequent calibration is required. More so with pH as it needs more care during usage and also during storage. hope this helps

So I’ve been gardening for about 20 years and recently switched over to a nutrient line that has to be measured by EC. So here’s my question? Let’s say I’m using a nutrient line where there’s also additives. With Athena, here is the order you mix your nutes 1. Balance (is a silica additive) 2. Cleanse ( hypochlorous acid for keeping clean root zone) 3. Calmag 4. Grow A (same order with bloom) 5. Grow B 6. PK (when in bloom only) So here is what I don’t understand? I’m trying to get the EC of just the base nutrients or am I supposed to be measuring the EC of the entire solution? I’m assuming that all the additive are gonna make the EC reading rise when each is added? Can you explain how to read EC when there’s a bunch of additive incorporated with the base nutrient solution?

So can can add more A/B to already mixed A/B? Yes? I've been growing for 15 years but new to using EC value (as opposed to ppm) and mixing in large reservoirs. I did not know (in all that time) you could add more A/B (separately of course) to an already mixed solution.

@crawford323 Жыл бұрын
Your explanation is the first I have found which confirms my assessment that plants use waster at different rates than nutrients. Thus if a working solution is used to replenish the water loss, a too high a concentration will result in a very short period of time. Water without nutrients must be added and monitoring with an EC meter is necessary to keep the system at or about your target EC range. Measuring your fluid in the reservoir with the pump running risk misreadings. I have seen a 40O mc difference in readings with the pump on vs off. It is my recommendation to have a separate cup to hold the sample when taking a reading.

@sivatejareddy73823 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much sir 👍 I have a doubt here..... we are mixing equal quantities of solution A and solution B and then measuring the EC value. When the plant absorbs the nutrients the EC value will come down Generally nutrient solution A is NPK, if a plant utilised more quantity of solution A and very less quantity of solution B, but to restore the EC value if we mix A and B again in equal quantities then it will end up having solution A in less quantity and solution B in high quantity. is there any way that we can solve this?? Thanks in advance
@keyurshah6793 жыл бұрын
Thanks for sharing. It's clear as to why to use EC over TDS meter and also how to increase or decrease EC of solution. My question is while we adjust EC, does other important parameters like PH of solution gets affected?
@TheGeekgardener3 жыл бұрын
While you adjust EC, parameters like pH change. For that reason, pH is always done at the end. Also remember, pH adjust will technically change EC although marginally. That change we can live with as long as the added acid doesnt increase an individual element beyond its allowed range.

Using the 3 -part nutrient kit, do you mix the three in your feeding solution then measure EC or do you measure the EC on each nutrient in water separate?
@TheGeekgardener4 жыл бұрын
I use two part solution A and B. Solution C is acid. Generally our nutrient adjustment protocol is 1. Measure the solution EC, if its within range. Be happy :-) 2. If its above the range, add RO water till the ideal range is obtained. 3. If the EC is lower, then add equal parts of A and B in small increments until the right EC is achieved. After this pH is adjusted. Hope this helps
@bhargavp67743 жыл бұрын
Sir, your knowledge and explanation is simply amazing. I have a small doubt. You were saying after adjusting EC to desired range, then ph should be adjusted. In large commercial hydroponics farm also do they follow this? Implies dosing pumps of EC adjust first after which dosing pumps of ph come into play later? Or both EC and ph dosing pumps run as per reading, please throw some light on the sequence followed in maintaining large commercial farm

How often do you replace your nutrients? After adjusting the EC
@TheGeekgardener5 жыл бұрын
I adjust the EC every other day or as and when there is a reduction or increase in EC. If the tank volume is smaller, replacing it is easier and cheaper. For larger tanks, replacing or dumping the solution is not always an option since the cost is higher. For home garden, replacing the solutions once in 10 days will do. Instead of dumping the solution, I always use that to water plants in pots and in soil. They thrive well in these solutions.
