How can ec be sooo high and plants all are healthy!

I just checked my ec on my plants. Planted 5 seeds and only gave them bergmans best at correct doses. And watered reg water. Every 4. To 5 days it swit hed it back n forth. So like nutes every 8 days. How after 5 weeks is my ec on 1 plant 4.0. And on others 2.1 . Yet all look tall healthy n great ? Also using perfect ph by advanced nutrients on a det of clones and they all had ec of 1.6. Which us what bergmans says theres should be?




be ?

You don’t mention what medium you’re in. If in soil it buffers differently than soilless so you often see numbers up around 8.0 EC. Your numbers aren’t out of line at all. One plant is consuming more salts than the others is all.
