Default ppm for Bell Peppers

Ron, In the Hydroponic Society of America email comments someone stated that Bell Peppers only need about 400 - 500 PPM strength solution, otherwise they burn and/or don't grow well. I was thinking of growing Bell Peppers, is this true ? Thanks

Different plants do need different strengths of solution. I can't find any reference to the ppm for peppers in my books. But I am feeding my peppers at twice that and they seem to be doing ok except for the wilting from the heat during the hot mid-day.
