🌱 If you're new to hydroponics and want to keep your plants growing healthy AND GREEN, this video is for you! We're going to learn about measuring the EC and pH of your nutrient solution. 
Proper EC, or Electrical Conductivity, management ensures that your plants receive the right of amount of nutrient. 

For leafy greens, the ideal EC range is 1.4 to 1.8. Mine was above 2.0, so I added pH balanced water to my tank. As you can watch in the video, the level is now right at 1.8!

The Bluelab Nutrient Meter will give you reliable results. https://shorturl.at/kquwI

Keeping your pH level in balance is also important for optimal plant health. For lettuce and leafy greens, a pH level of 6.0-7.0 will ensure that nutrients are readily available for absorption. 

General Hydroponics has a simple to use pH balance kit.
