-pH, EC, Temperature

Measering and controlling your ph, EC and temperature of your nutrient tank will help you improve your plants growth and survival rate.

pH is important because it affects how plants absorb nutrients. A lower pH helps plants grow more leaves, while a slightly higher level helps them get nutrients that promote flowering.

EC shows how many nutrients are in the water. A higher EC means there are more nutrients or salts. If the EC is too high, you can add fresh water to lower it, or add more nutrients to raise it.

In cold weather, it’s a good idea to use an aquarium heater to warm the water. This helps your plants continue to grow during the winter.
