Earl Well-Known Member Feb 20, 2008 #4 If you are growing hydro, you should check the nute mfg instruction. Most hydro nute mfg will have a website. Advanced Nutrients, and most other hydro nutes I am familiar with, recommend 5.5-5.8 for hydro. pH is very important for plant health, and easy to control if you use RO. .
