Need a little help here as i'm confused.
I was under the impression that when growing in DWC that this is how it works.
ec up ph down= add less nutes
ec down ph up =add more nutes
ec stable ph drifting slightly up =all good
So as i'm growing DWC in 3 DIY 20 litre black buckets i'm having a few problems with PH as this is whats happening.
ec is stable on all 3 bubblers and stays stable but ph keeps on dropping by maybe a point a day and i can't get my head around it,so what does this mean?
ec stable ph drifting slightly down =?
I'm growing under 2 x 400w hps.
Water temps between 19-24c.
Growroom temps 26c
Humidity 50%
Been on 12 hours 18 days.
I do a fresh res change every 7 days.
Last res change was last friday 22nd october and i reset PH to what it was before res change which was 5.8.
Saturday & sunday PH had risen to 6.0 then on Monday it started to drop very slowly and now for 2 bubblers PH is 5.7 and the third bubbler 5.8
Ec remains the same as to what i set it at it never drops or rises just the PH drops slowly,can anyone help me out.
Thanks.
