EC is too great and nuts too low..help please

10 years ago

I'm running a dwc for my tomato plant and cannot get the right balance of nuts and ec. I run tap water now that starts at an ec of around .8 and 140ppm. I am using flora duo from GH.

I want to run my nuts at the transition stage of about 1000ppm. My problem is that when I do this my water is actually reading 1150'ish because of my starting water. That sends my ec into the 2.0 to 2.2 range and from what I have read that is too high. I want an ec of 1.5 right?

Will starting with distilled water be of any benefit? Thanks.
