I am into growing hot peppers a few months and I am getting conflicting information online regarding what EC to aim for.

Some website says EC 1.6-1.8, the other says EC 2.0-3.0 and it is really confusing for me.

I am wondering what EC everyone uses for hot peppers or just fruiting crops in general?

    I feed mine around 1.6 ec right now. Using maxigro from seed to harvest. I have gone up to 2 ec. I’m growing in pots of coco coir. Just read your plants to see if they want more or less

    I started mine off at around 1 when transplanted. Then are currently at 2.5-2.8.

    Thanks – what NPK ratio do you recommend for peppers?

    Forgive the ask, but what is EC?
