RESERVOIR TOP-OFF

The daily question: the plants drank, the EC drifted — what do you add right now? Enter the reservoir as it stands and where you want it; the engine solves the dose — concentrate parts, plain water, or both — and tells you plainly when the honest answer is a dump-and-remix instead. Brand-agnostic: it works from your recipe's rates, not a product database. Nothing leaves your browser.

The reservoir, as it stands

Last mix recipe — full-strength rates

How it solves: EC blends linearly by volume. A part mixed at its full-strength rate contributes that recipe's full-strength EC — the number you entered above, measured on your own fresh batch. Your brand's chart EC is the right value; the 2.0 pre-fill is only a placeholder.

What to add

Add concentrates

Dump-and-remix advisory

  • The correction needs 120.0 L of full-strength equivalent into a 40 L reservoir — more solution than the tank holds. That is a remix wearing a top-off costume: dump and remix.

EC is the stored truth — PPM depends on your meter's scale (500 or 700), so both are shown. Stir and re-read after dosing; meters settle slower than math. This engine doses nutrients only — it does not dose pH.
