Ph what am i missing

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

I'm just curios iv there is a like a formula like say if my ph is 7.5 n I have say 10 litres of water than how many drops should I need and how long should I wait fmto let it mix in

 

[Madmick]

Probably not

 

[ThaliaGreen]

There is.

My partner uses calculators that have them for home brewing beer.

It's not as simple as starting pH to target pH though. You need to know the full water mineral profile because that plays a part.

Here's an example of all the stuff you need to know as well as pH:

Anions is the recipe for bicarbonate soda

 

[Hudo]

Get a syringe and add 1ml at a time . Then stir or shake for 30 seconds check and repeat untill you hit your target pH. Count how many ml you put in and if your water is stable in your area then you should just be able to just add that amount mix and check. Instead of adding checking adding checking

Well I really don't think that is applicable, you also need to know the ec that you are feeding

It's the end result after adding your nutrients , but you still need to know EC , how strong your solution are

Cana coco automatically adjusts pH to 6.2 ,at ec 0.8 or above

I add 1 ml to 1 litre of water so 50ml /50l , EC 1.2

Well yeah, but it's not just the EC that matters. The nutrients are adding those minerals and things to the water, which is what is changing the pH.

But that was kind of my point, if you know what minerals the nutrients are adding to the water, and how much, you could in theory work it out using a formula, but there's no real way to measure it, so it's not going to work.

Do you follow the chart mick or just run E.C at 1.2 . I struggle when I get the E.C stick out so I threw the cunt away I use canna coco but I just run it 3/4 strength. When I follow the chart and recommended EC I burn fuck out of them?

 

[Madmick]

Just found this works for me , fuck the chart it's too much

Just after yrs of getting the same reading , I just a little container marked at 10ml intervals is all I use now

Haven't checked pH or ec for some time now

 

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

I only have the ph shit from bunnings where it changes the water colour imma get am actually ph pen soon tho am am ec if I know the ec then I should be able to work out how mutch ph down to add

 

[Madmick]

No it tells you how strong your feed is , pH up or down

 

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

Yes I know ec tells me strength of solution I'm sorry I am shit at communication I guess I i was wondering if there was like a formula say if i am using hng a plus b coco then say wjst the ec would be for seedlings

 

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

But thanks everyone for the advice

Like mick said once you figure out your set up you prob wont need to check it. I only check mine every 2 or 3 mixes just to make sure nothing has changed but is always within a point. It's always around 5.8 after I add everything. It sits around 6.1 without the bio diesel and 5.8 when I'm adding bio diesel

 

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

Tomorro imma check the ph without nutes as i don't wanna feed seedlings anything but phd water

 

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

Wish I could still get mega crop

 

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

Once actively start growing again ittl be right i reckon I'm still newb n have no idia wjst I'm doing gunna grow in a sip the sip will take up most of the room in the tent lol

 

[Merl1n]

I agree with Mick and Hudo 'ya figure it out'. Everybody's setups, resi, nutes and water varies and some wildly. So to be saying '2ml/10ltr' maybe great for someone, but burn the crap out of another grow/setup. This grow game is a learning for everybody, some people will tell you they know it all. It's bullshit. No one knows it all. I know what works for me and my setup, but I do not know it all. Everybody has their own little tweaks, their own ways of doing things and over time you'll learn yours too.

And don't worry about being a newbie, we all were at some stage.

 

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

I gotta stop over thinking stuff n stop being afraid to make mistakes

 

[Abnormal÷curiosity]

can't work out/ make up my mind what colour this is I think maybe 7.5 n 8 this is my water straight outta the tap getting aph pen soon tho so then I'll no for sure lol might need to go to spec savours
