I'm about to start growing on a true garden tower. I got second hand... trying to cut all additional cost.. and have a corner of my house that gets full sun. Will that suffice for LIGHT... or will I have to supplement some with plig ins
I got that ppm meter… and it won’t go past 1436 ppm… I calculated for the stuff I’m growing I need to be around 1550 ppm… help? Did I just get a dud meter?
1500 PPM is only for the end of the flowering/fruiting stage in plants (like tomatoes) If they are young they should never need a PPM that high. Does your meter also reads EC, if so I would just switch to that by pressing the "mode" button then use that measurement (in the tenths) like 1400Ms/c is a EC of 1.4. That is a better way that using PPM. hope this helps
@ on the guides I’ve read/found it states those ppm levels are needed for certain plants, that I have growing. How would I know when Levels need to be changed for each plant? 🥲 and then how do I know what they need to start out at?

You can always pick up a lux or PAR meter to read the lighting to see. I would imagine you would be fine but it also depends on what you are growing.
@humblegrowth do you have a video showing how you cal your ppm meter? I feel like you would get daily hits on that
