Try up it to 600 after getting it 600 ph it to 5.5 cause it is going to rise for atleast 36 hours make sure you chevk on it if ph goes above 6.3 ph down to 5.8 let it go and mark a line for your water level it is then the next day add ro water with 0 ppm to the line check the ec if it went up need to decrease nutes if went down it ok long as it is like 0-50 ppm then once it evens out eatting and drinking the same you’ll not have worry about adding till it’s empty or you can do the res nutrient formula to add back same ppms plus water you lose per day or every 3 days.but also the plants habits change of how much it eats

forgot what type water you using anyways?
I have just been using regular tap water. I’m glad you sent me this information it says to only use 2 parts of the system i have been using

i’ve been using regular tap water and i’m glad you sent me the info you sent because the system i’ve been using is a 3 part system and this information you sent says only to use 2 of them. I’ve been using flora bloom,flora micro and the flora grow it doesn’t say anything about the flora grow on this site

I know and some people are able to
Use all of them but so many people grow using that nutrient that they made their own little way of using it better your welcome tho and what’s the ppm of your tap cause whatever your ppm of you plant is isn’t 450. Let say your tap is 200 ppm and your at 450 so you only have 250 ppm of nutes

I never thought of that but you’re right so really my ppm in nuts is only 250 or so then.Is it ok to use tap water?

It is a beneficial bacteria only if your res water gets in high temps like mid 70s it protects roots by feeding on whatever root rot feeds on so it can’t grow faster and take ahold
That’s one place i’ve got it good i can keep my water temp at 66 to 68

well I don’t know what ppm your tap water is and if it is treated with chlorine you should let it sit out 24 hours and bubble with air stone get rid of chlorine in water
I let my water set out for a week with an 8 inch flat air stone with a 32 watt pump

Oh ok then, most chlorine should evaporate in 24 hours if you have regular municipal water source.what’s the ppm of the tap water alone?
I have learned a lot this time what not to do.Next time like on the water levels next time i need to figure out away to know what my water levels are without lifting up the net pot and looking in it

I’m thinking of drilling a hole at the perfect water level and putting a hose in it to run into a separate bucket
