TDS meter. A TDS meter is a digital tool that measures the levels of salt, nutrients, and other concentrates in the water. These measurements are critical to understanding how much water, nutrients, and oxygen your plants are currently able to absorb. It also lets you know when to feed your plants.
those are two different things, but you can use both. a bag of hydroponic sponges is much cheaper than a bag of Rockwool. if in your place it is difficult to get rockwool, you can use a kitchen sponge for hydroponics. but for best results, use rockwool. Rockwool has a high water retention capacity it has a restricted root environment and a low buffering capacity for water and nutrients. The water flow to plant roots may be hindered, even when the water content is apparently high.
AB mix is a hydroponic solution, a source of nutrients that plants need and is used for hydroponic systems. AB mix provides nutrients delivered in liquid form via a stream of water, water droplets or in mist form. How to use and the dosage required is usually stated on the AB mix packaging for all products.
Thank you for making these vids, you’re a life saver :)
Thank you, happy gardening
Love these videos! Thanks for the great info!
Thanks for watching
Hello, what is the device you use to measure the concentration?

Is the rockwool the same as a kitchen sponge?
