What is the best way to feed in the UC??

[mmmmmzzzzzz]

I have been feeding my plants weekly, no top up res just into the epi,,

I let them eat all week as the ec/ppm gets lower just top up with water...

Once the week is up, I jack up the food again...

Is there a better way to do this?

What is everyones thoughts on this, should I add food every day or other day to keep the ppm stable or just do what Im doing???

Thnxx...

if your plants are happy why change, lots of UC users top load (adds to epi) my res is always Ph water with 100ppm that's it.

True woods,, was just thinking the plants could be pushed more if the ppm where always added every day or other day when I top up the water as opposed to once a week adding nutes ...

I usually let my ppms drop 200 before I add back. Plants love it no need to push them hard in the UC

well i see everyone got this already i do the top off epi also have about 100 - 200 ppms in the 50 gal rez mostly uc roots and h202 and water phd then i top off in the rez once they have drank about 100 - 200 ppms then add back.
