Frequently Asked Questions
| Q: |
Why are PPM, TDS, pH and EC important? |
| A: |
PPM and TDS are abbreviations that represent
the concentration of elements in a solution or atmosphere. PPM is short
for parts per million and TDS for total dissolved solids. EC (electro
conductivity) is another form of measurement for TDS. PH is a measure of
acidity or alkalinity which dictates plant uptake of particular
elements. |

| Q: |
What is the suggested pH range for my hydroponic system and soil plants? |
| A: |
Hydroponic and soil gardens differ in the fact
they both need different pH ranges for nutrients to be made available
for plant absorption. Maintain a pH between 5.0 and 6.5 for hydroponic
gardens and 6.0 to 7.0 for soil applications. |
