I just got a hydrometer and I noticed the humidity is a little too low. Hopefully, it won't affect the growth. Very good week overall, thinking to do a flush and start increasing the nutrients level as the plant is not a seedling anymore. The ph keeps increasing by 1 each week. I wonder what is causing that.

Second water change this week. This time I decided to increase the ppm up to 600 and see if the plant was going to sustain it. I was honestly expecting a small bite burn but it seems like nothing has happened after 3 days. Ph keeps increasing slightly everyday and ppm keeps decreasing. Really happy with how this is going.

I noticed that with time PH increases and ppm decreases linearly even after adding water. Is there a relationship with ppm and PH somehow? When should I be worried if these changes are too abrupt?

Hello. When plants feed the ppm goes down. The plants get rid of waste in he hydro stream, and change the ph, that's part of the reason you change the water weekly. I find normally the ph goes down but I've had plants where I've had the ph go up. I correct daily. Good Luck. Chuck.

Normally when you start getting fluctuations in your ph you need to do a good cleaning inside you rez and buckets. Slime starting throws ph out of whack. Cheers friend

This week is topping week! I FIM the main branch. I don't believe it did it right but we'll see in some days what the result will be like.

The plant has recovered really well. No signs of stress at all. I've been increasing the ppm to see how it reacts and if it drinks more. Did some defoliation at the lowest fan leaves. Did FIMming on the 2 other branches that have spawned. Very satisfied with the growth.
