Hi,
Looks like you missed the class. Dude you gotta figure this shit out before you grow. LOL
ppm is how much salts/nutrients you have in the water "parts per million"
when you mix your nutrients you measure the amount with it. If you need more add some. If you have too much drain some and add water.
Once nutrients are at the proper level then pH the solution so plants can use the nutrients. When the water level drops, add ph balanced water then Change out water completely every week. Use R/o or Distilled. Tap water sucks most of the time.
in DWC if your talking about the air pump just turn it on.
If you are watering roots in air and have a cycle timer 20 min on and 2 hours off should work. Try different cycles, find whats best. Be sure they never get dry.

Thanks Dude but How does the PPM number tell you how much nutes mix in? I'm going off the label reading in ml/4l.

Thank's man, I've been trying to find out the ppm for lavender kush but can find nothing on it. My plants are 4 weeks and the ppm right now is 923. Do you happen to know a site i can find out more info on lavender kush and the proper ppm it should be at all stages?
