Help!

I wanted to know what the ppm ranges should be for healthy growth in a DWC set up? I’m using a 8L basin with my plants under a 60w led light panel. It’s essentially and aerogarden XL set up. I just check my ppm and seedlings as shown are reading 380ppm and PH is 8.4. My clones as shown are reading 330 ppm with Ph of 8.0 I know PH is too high, needs to be around 5.5-6.5 max but I have no idea what my PPM ranges need to be for clones and seedlings? I put 3 cap fulls of aerogarden plant food in each of the basins 12 days ago. Oh yea water temp is 27degrees cel which I know is high. Also how can I cool basins down without spending $$? It’s a mouth full.

Fix your pH or your plants are going to die. As for ppm range, just use 1/4 strength of what the nutrient bottle suggests. I would suggest getting better nutrients though, not sure if those will take your plant all the way through.

I fixed my PH today and PPM ranges on clones are in the 300-400 range and seedlings are around the same 300-500 range. and I’m only using aerogarden food for the early veg stage only. Thanks for the speedy reply.
