Managing Nutrient Solutions for Hydroponic Leafy Greens and Herbs, Part 1. In part 1, Dr. Chris Currey of Iowa State University focuses on: Common Production Systems, pH and EC Management. Hydroponic greens and herbs are produced in systems with recirculating nutrient solution. In order to maintain productive and quality crops, it is important to know how to properly maintain your nutrient solution. We will discuss strategies for managing pH and EC, formulating nutrient solutions, as well as identification of common nutrient disorders.
