Hulkberry Auto 1st grow DWC

Week two started with light nutrients and issues with the water level and ph. I found the ph was really high after a few days and readjusted it via the outlet tube. I was able to extract water from the bucket, test it and adjust it making allowances for the difference in volume between sample and reservoir. I poured the adjusted solution down the outlet tube back into the reservoir and blew into the tube to ensure that all the water was reintroduced into the bucket. Again the plant seemed to be growing though a lot slower than I expected.
