today i was going to feed my plants thinking the problems that my plants were having was cuz i didnt feed at fullstrenght. The ppm i checked before water was 1500ppm then once i water one plant just to check the run off the ppm was bouncing from 2300-2500. So instead of feeding i flushed it with just water. My leaves are crisping up and going yellow with brown spots. What is the appropriate ppm i get my plants to start feeding. So the run off wont be higher then the nutrients ppm. Im using fox farm soil.

Hey how's it going? Which fox farm soil are you using specifically? I know that sometimes the Fox Farm brand soils tend to cause a spike in ppm but it can simply just be the preloaded content in the medium from the manufacturer. I would recommend using a variance in your soil to cut down on the ppm spike.

Wouldnt see why not. If anything theres actually nutes in the soil whereas in hydro the only nutes is in the water.

Id think you could feed even lighter in soil.
