Question: RDWC nutrient measurement help

[Khop]

Hello everyone,

I am building a recirculating deep water culture system. My clean water reservoir is going to be 20 gallons with 10 13gallon totes. Total of 150 gallons. my question is if my liquid nutrients tell me to use 2 mL per gallon am I supposed to do 2 mL per the total number of gallons or just my freshwater reservoir?
Thank you for everyone who is going to answer

Hey Khop,

I would calculate the amount of fertilizer based on the systems total volume.

as zillow said . I would also use a ppm meter to get the actual reading . 20 bucks amazon ebay.

I actually bought one, and that is a good idea. Thank you.
