CX recommends a minimum of 1.2 EC (electrical conductivity) for standard growth — that's 2ml of each part per litre of water. For lighter feeding, both parts at 1ml\/L gives you 0.6 EC. Always shake the bottles well before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor recirculating systems\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMix both parts into your reservoir at your target EC, maintaining consistent levels throughout the growing cycle.
