I have been ph down my water every morning and afternoon so far. is it true that when the ph climbs that means the plants are eating the nutrients successfully? ppm 570( constant ec .8 ( constant ph rising from 5.8-7.6 medium is rockwool/ hydroton ( hydro grow)

Yes but not that fast.. not if it’s climbing almost 2 points in a day. Are you using an actual pH down or something like vinegar /lemon juice? The latter won’t work.

I looked at your diary and I think since you’re dealing with such a high pH out of the tap - it’s taking time to reach a steady pH? Maybe let your water sit for a few days before putting in the reservoir? I also recommend photosynthesis plus as a good beneficial additive that works in hydro.
