Humboldt Hydro Honey has a High EC, Whaaat??
Hey guys, thought I'd run this by you.
I was suggested HN Hydro Honey, tonight I mixed my first batch of nutes with it. Before I added it the EC was 1.3, after adding 7mL/gal of hydro honey the EC went up to 2.1. WTF, I thought this was a carb product, and wouldn't contribute to my overall EC. However it turns out that it has 10% calcium. Now I have 10 gallons of nutes mixed with EC of 2.1, so I was thinking about diluting it but then the ratio of other elements will be off. Any input on Humboldt Hydro Honey would be greatly appreciated. Since I am using RO, I already have Cal-Mag as part of my nute regimen, so I am thinking all that extra calcium from hydro honey might cause calcium toxicity. Please share your thoughts or your experience about this product. Thank you. |

Nah don't dilute it. Look at it like this.....
Your real nute strength is 1.3 EC. They Honey is a carb and will contribute to your PPMs (it does at my house too). Just run with it. Those PPMs the Honey contributes are not "burning PPMs" if you will. I dig the Honey ES.

This is the only 'carb product' ive seen with Ca. (let alone a shit ton of it.)
Most carb products (Sweet, Floranectar, Sugar Daddy, Bud Candy) have Mg and S aka epsom salt |
