You measure EC with and EC meter and TDS with a TDS meter. There is a conversion between the two and google is your friend. Here is a link for a quick and easy explanation. What is conductivity and why measure it in ppm, EC, TDS, CF? I hope sharing a link is allowed otherwise they'll be after me again.

There are a some meters out there that measure both EC or PPM TDS. Top end units will include pH as well which some of us consider just as important as what in you feed. I will share that I started out with cheap meters and was very disappointed quickly. Now I use more expensive meters in the $50 to $100 range. There is a company named Apera Instruments and some of their meters have replaceable probe tips that cost less to replace when needed. Apera also has quality calibration liquids to keep your meter accurate. I think @FelipeBlu also has something from that product line. Really easy and simple to use but really accurate.

Thank you, BTz. You're turning out to be as nice and helpful as your brother.

This is their recommended dose for seedlings = EC of 0.24

Doesn’t seem particularly hot to me.

And learning to read the plants is what it’s all about. See above in this journal.

Any chance you could share this spreadsheet with me? I don't really understand it all but I love tracking stuff.

¡Hola Mumps! ¡Bienvenidos amigo! ¡Gracias por su visita!

Training begins for the BeBos

 

[FelipeBlu]

Summer is here!

 

[HashGirl]

WOW! Summer is definitely not here. It's supposed to go down to 32 tonight from the 39 it is now.

But, that's okay by me. I like spring. It's my favourite season. Felonious and I had a nice hike in the woods behind us this morning.

 

[FelipeBlu]

I like spring too. We get these early heat waves, sometimes as early as April. But we’re supposed to get back into the 70s next week, so that will be more spring-like. I think I would be tired of the 30s by May.

Seeing a lot of leaf hoppers in the last couple of days.

These are really tricky bastards - they are fast, can scoot sideways, hop a long way, and can fly. They hang out under leaves and lay eggs in the stems and veins of leaves. You must deal with them immediately!

Fortunately, they will succumb to insecticidal soap. However, since they are not soft-bodied like aphids, you must mix 1 tablespoon of isopropyl alcohol to 1 quart of the spray to help the soap penetrate the insects’ outer shell.

Die bastids! Die!

Good job getting that photo then .

Seriously, cool picture. Good luck with the battle ahead.

I'm dreading getting bugs.

Ha! No way I could take that photo! It’s from the web.

Bugs are a hassle, but you can’t beat the sun.

Another nice day. Looks like my insulation is still thick enough!

The kids are doing well and taking to their training

Hope you are having a cool day

 

[FelipeBlu]

Training the hempy toms too

These will be maintained as single leaders, and 2 will spiral up each cage.

 

[BTzGrow]

I think you are running quite a bit warming than I am down here. Whew!v Plants are looking awesome of course.

 

[FelipeBlu]

Yeah, it does spike sometimes - should break tonight as the marine layer gets pulled in.
Supposed to be very nice all next week.

 

[FelipeBlu]

I have to say, that since I started providing silica, the stems on the BeBo feel like fine grit sandpaper, and the leaves are like leather. I’ve seen plenty of bugs just sitting there, no leaf damage, and what I imagine is a WTF expression.

The GLGA still seems more tender, and once again, is showing signs of attack.

 

[FelipeBlu]

Another sunny Sunday. Chance of showers tomorrow. The kids will love it

The Berry Bombs are now sexlined

May have to up-pot these two before long. Thinking about a 20 gallon hempy..

Made of LDPE and UV resistant. What do ya think?

 

[BTzGrow]

Your Kids are thriving and loving life. It's funny you should ask what we think about the TubTrugs. The previous weekend pictures started me considering what you might do Hempy wise to accommodate a long grow period these photos are going to experience. The BeBo especially appear to be getting ready to explode. No pun intended. You might want to consider a next size up from the 20gal???

 

[FelipeBlu]

I just realized that I don’t need to buy Tubtrugs. I already have two 30 gallon tubs. I wonder if anyone has ever done a hempy this size...
