Actually it's more relevant then hydro which I know sounds funny but you guys water soil with solutions that are as strong as used in hydro. When a salt build up or overfeeding occurs with hydro it's a matter of dumping the solution and running the pumps with plain water. With soil you gotta flush and that process alone is shocking enough on the plants let alone the problem that got you there.

I guess the reasoning for my original thinking was that the ppm checking was more for knowing what it was before feeding, so one could know when the reservoir/bucket/etc. needed a top off with fresh water to dilute it back down after a few days of the plant taking up water faster than it's taking up nutrients.

Kind of like, I just thought knowing the ppm of a nutrient solution intended for soil (even though it's just as strong as one for hydro) wouldn't help much further than just confirming how many cc's of liquid fert. was added. But I think I get it now.

High ppm regularly = salty solution regularly = eventual heavy salt buildup = shitload of future issues

Time to flush and break out the meter.

A little over full strength Beastie Bloomz to make up for having no Tiger Bloom (For 3 gallons of water, I use 3 1/4 tsp and then 1 extra 1/8th tsp)
