Ok, sounds good.That's why I was asking about the ppm. I've been reading and a lot say it's pointless, but it seems you could still get ball park of buildup and over/under feeding.
I have a cheap soil probe that I don't trust. I may invest in a decent one. I think the low ph from the first few times f'd it up and it will bounce back.
It's doing better I think. I can smell her again. The lights come on in 30 and I'll be able to see how it looks.
I'd keep the plain water up for a little bit.
Yeah, they both are fairly inaccurate. Mostly because soil is holding nutrients already, breaks down, leaches etc.
I'm pretty sure you can make a slurry using a soil sample and distilled water, to get a fairly accurate EC reading. But i'm not sure of the ratio, you'd have to find out.
Good luck, hope it comes around.
