EC is very important can tell you a lot you can fix a lot of problems if you know your EC sometimes your plant will shut down and not take up nutrients because your salt content is too high if you are burning your plant giving it too much nutrients it has a lot to do with growing testing your water testing your runoff testing your nutrient solution learn how to do it it's not that hard they have inexpensive meters that are very inexpensive are pretty much accurate not all but some are pretty accurate something to learn

I'm new to hydroponics (raising herbs) and don't have meters yet. The kit that I have told me to add nutrients every two weeks and to use 5 ml of nutrients for every liter of water. If I only add (let's say) a liter of new water (with 4 liters left from the original), do I just add nutrients for that single liter (5 ml), or do I add nutrients for all 5 liters (25 ml)? Thanks for any help.

11:06 you are better off getting rid of old solution and add a newly mixed batch, your ppm readings is misleading at this stage, firstly ppm is high because the plant has used up enough water to increasing the solute concentration in percentage, secondly as the plant might have used different nutrients at different rates, by adding plain water (solvent) you may not be replacing the nutrients (solutes) that the plant has used in greater percentage...
