MONITORING RECYCLE SYSTEMS

Depending on what set-up you are using, you may find that
your solution goes through a system that uses the nutrients in the
reservoir over and over. As the plant extracts the nutrients and
minerals from the solution it will become depleted of its resources over
time. For this reason we must understand how to monitor our
nutrients. In today's world monitoring systems are a bit expensive. If
you have a ppm reader (TDS meter, Total Dissolved Solids) you can

understand how much of your nutrients have been used up and how
much more you need to add to reach the optimal nutrient level. All
reservoirs will become unbalanced and need replenishing. As a general
rule, an initial amount is used to fill the reservoir. As the plants use up
the solution, we top up the reservoir to maintain the initial level.
If you start with 10 gallons of solution then we need to top up
to that total of 10 gallons every few days.
If you do not have a reader you can still grow a good crop, but
it takes practice to get it right. If a cannabis hydroponics grower does
not have a ppm reader, then they tend to replace the reservoir more
often instead of topping it up. That way the grower is certain that the
new solution will contain everything the plant needs. If you have a
ppm reader then you only need to top off the reservoir as needed. PPM
(parts per millionth) readers can be expensive, but over time they will
help you save money on the cost of hydroponics nutrients.

Think for yourself. Question authority.
