Nutrient Dilution Calculator

🔨 Tools for Success

Before you dive in, make sure you’re set up for success. Tray-based dilution works best with accurate tools:

These tools help ensure your EC targets are consistent and repeatable—especially when working with sensitive crops or multi-stage acclimation.

🌱 Nutrient Dilution Calculator

To use this calculator, mix 1gm of nutrients with 1 liter of water. Take a reading. You will want a meter that uses µS. If your meter reads in mS just convert it by multiplying your result by 1000. This is your base reading. Plug that number into the calculator in "Base EC per liter(µS)". Then enter the EC reading you want to use as your target full-stregth in µS. Hit Calculate. The result will tell you how much you need to add to a liter to obtain your EC full-stregth goal.

This is how much you'd need to add to a liter of water, it is NOT how much you'will add to the testing solution.
