Dwc requiring less nutes

Since we use less nutrients in dwc as roots are always in contact with the water would we use less of the biostims too?

I have several products that contain triacontinol, some with kelp,etc..

always used less nutes with dwc maxing at 500ppm(0.5ec)

many of these biostims say use 1-2ml per l...

If I can get just as good effects with half the dosage I’d be saving quite a bit on stims.

im going to try halfing it myself on my next run to see if there are any differences but if anyone else already knows the answer it may save me some time

cheers

Why don't you go with something really simple, but with excellent results, such as General Hydroponics' Maxigro/Maxibloom. I've been growing via RDWC for 12 years, and it's what I still use.

What is a biostim anyway? My understanding is not to use any organic stuff in hydro?? I’ve never tried. Basic NPK has served me well nice and cheap.

Wow this blew up all of a sudden.

so I’m using a simple range I’m just talking about biostims.
So if I want to use a tria product.

So things like boost, elixir steroids, kelp products

For example nitrozyme may say 2ml per l...

In dwc do you guys still use 2ml per l or less?
