What instrument is used to measure the mass of the body?
A scale. Although it only measures the attractive force of gravity, it also provides your mass because of the known gravity of the Earth.
In weight what does gm stand for?
A scale with a gm mode is probably referring to "grains."In metric, grain (gn) is equal to 50 MICROgrams (mg).In Imperial/British/Standard: The term dates back to the early British (aka Imperial) system of weights and measures where grain was used as the basis of all weights and was, therefore, the smallest of all weights in this system.1 grain = 1/7,000 of a pound (lb), or about 0.0646 gramsIn mass, gm is sometimes used to indicate grams, though g is more common (and correct). Weight is not a measure of mass but a measure of the effect of gravity on a mass, so in this case, it would not actually be a measurement of weight.

What is cf value?
The scale used to measure nutrient strength is electrical conductivity (EC) or conductivity factor (CF). The CF scale is most commonly used in hydroponics. It spans from 0 to more than 100 CF units. The part of the scale generally used by home hydroponic gardeners spans 0-100 CF units. The part of the scale generally used by commercial or large-scale hydroponic growers is from 2 to 4 CF. (strength for growing watercress and some fancy lettuce) to as high as approximately 35 CF for fruits, berries, and ornamental trees. Higher CF values are used by experienced commercial growers to obtain special plant responses and for many of the modern hybrid crops, such as tomatoes and some peppers. Most other plant types fall between these two figures and the majority is grown at 13-25 CF.--Rob Smith
