@EVERYTHINGFRIEDISGOOD because you are not changing the solution it is just building up in unused
salts thus the increase in your EC / PPM
the plant takes what it needs and leaves what it doesn't and when you just add more to the solution
instead of changing it occasionally it certain nutrients build up and cause the high levels
So change your nutes out every now and then
or risk loss of yield and problematic growing experience 👊

You need to change your water, and clean out the system once a week ideally.
Also an auto fed at 1200 is quite high.
I still would lower the feed down to 600-800
You can see the starting of what I feel is nutrient burn on the tips of the plant in your diary.
You where using 300ppm for weeks 3 and 4 then jumped up to 1300??
why such a drastic hike?
I use this link a lot, its a good reference point for feeding autos in hydro.

Hello community! I broke 2 branches this week. The first one happened by accident when I was draining the runoff, and the other when I was bending it.And today I came across a video where the author explains that silica can cause brittleness of branches. Does anyone have experience with silica and have you experienced anything like this? I add potassium silicate with each watering, at a concentration of 15ppm

How much do you feed them extra-PK with Biotabs ?I use Biotabs : Mycotrex, Bactrex, Orgatrex, Startrex with a light mix soil and light water (0.08 to 0.1 ec). Some people told me I shouldn't put much PK 5-8 because they easily burn. How much and how often would you feed them PK ? I use blumats with plain water in 6.5L pots, thx

FOAM in the DWC tankHi guys, yesterday I changed the solution in DWC and today I saw some foam in the tank.
I had some ph oscillation and used first ph down and after some silica to raise ph. I guess that could cause that foam, what do you think? Some tips?

Runoff pH still climbing!My runoff PH keeps climbing despite lowering water pH. Plants look great but have red stems.
Is it possible that the bottom of my fabric pots are saturated with excess Calcium and Diatomaceous Earth? Thus, raising my runoff PH. Soil meter reads 6.8 though 🤔

I’m out of BioHeavenI’m out of Bio-Heaven and I wonder whether it’s worth getting some more, given that I’ll probably flush the plants within a few weeks and only use water then. Plus it’s quite expensive compared to BioGrow, BioBloom or TopMax… Any ideas or maybe an organic substitute? Thanks!Week 10
