What is a good ppm for Autoflowers?
You probably want a PPM around 600. You definitely want a pH between 5.8 – 6.3 (Lower for hydro, higher for soil). If you get a mix that has an 800 PPM and a pH of 6.0, that is fine. However if you get a PPM of 600 and a pH of 5.3 you are on the borderline of poisoning the plant.
What happens if PPM is too high?
If the ppm is still too high, you can wait for the plant to lower the water levels, or you can change the reservoir water altogether. Too low: Do the same as you would if the ppm were too high, but instead, top-off with nutrient-rich water.
How many ppm should my water be?
Concentrations less than 100 ppm are desirable for domestic water supplies. The recommended range for drinking water is 30 to 400 ppm. A minimum level of alkalinity is desirable because it is considered a “buffer” that prevents large variations in pH. Alkalinity is not detrimental to humans.
