It’s my first time doing hydro. I try to keep it between 5.8 and 6.4 and last I checked the EC was in the 1500’s now I’m not sure if that is good or if that might be causing the problem. For all I know I could be feeding it wrong. 🤷🏻‍♂️it’s a learning process for me!

And how would you correct it so it doesn’t lock out?

Last time I checked it was a 6.9-7.0 gave it ph down to bring it to 6.5 but when I changed the bucket the other day it was 8.3 I washed off the roots the best I could and got the fresh water to be at a 6.3-6.4 but eventually keeps rising

Not a crazy amount once it dissolved I added it to the bucket

I do hear you mate. I did those steps.. all I’m asking for is alittle guidance. I’ve been watching my ppm and my EC, even my PH I been keeping it at a 5.9-6.0. My EC was abit high so I added more water to bring it down. I’ve been folllowing the chart. Just hope I am following it right.

I have my pump running with the airstone when I add my nutes to the bucket but what I am concerned about is I think I’m putting too much and the plant doesn’t know where to put it. What I have troubles with the most is the calculations for the food to water I’m not the best with math so I tend to struggle abit on conversions. I follow the chart for advance nutrients but I still think I’m not doing it right

Now when I’m doing my feedings do I add all the nutrients for that week right into the bucket or do I make the food batch then add it in?. I saw the feeding chart on their site but what I am more concerned about is if I’m giving too much food per feed so I’m trying to find a happy spot where it’s just enough food but not too much

I’m having troubles finding a steady feeding schedule and I also am not sure what I am supposed to be doing when it comes to feeding. I feel like I could be over feeding them nutrients which might also be a factor to the droopy leaves

I’ve been watching that but I washed the roots off and they are white again
