Ok, here is my dilemma.....
I am using the Ebb & Gro bucket system with a 210 liter reservoir (55 gal). I am in week 6 of my Veg and my PPM will rise after topping.
Initially I'll set my ppm at 1900 (5.6 ph--tap water is 170 ppm) leveled off around 180 liters and the plants love it. The PPM will drop around 50 ppm every feeding for 3 days. On the 3rd day my water level has dropped approximately 100 liters so I top off. Now....here is where the issue begins. I top off with Sensi Grow A/B until the PPM reaches 1500 or so. Now after feeding them the first time the PPM will stay the same and the next feeding it will RISE about 10-20 PPM and every feeding after that it will rise 20-30 PPM until I change the reservoir entirely. I cant afford to change my reservoir every 4 days. Why is my PPM rising after I top of my reservior?? (when I top, I use tap water. Also using Advanced Nutes.
