Mine gets yellow/orange once in a while - I attribute it to the amount of iron in my water... nothing to worry about!

Mixing advanced nutrients together?
I’ve been using advanced nutrients micro grow bloom ph perfect lineup and I just got my hands on the big bud and bud candy. Should I mix these together with the micro grow bloom when I’m making my feed or should I do separate waterings??

Will excessively aerating and circulation change the PH?
I have a reservoir which holds my nutrients until they need to be used. Recently I had added in a pump for circulation in addition to my air stone. Since then my solution has been rising to over 7 within a few hours. I adjust back down and it goes back up again? What the heck?

Recharge vs Great white
I'm currently debating real growers recharge and great white. I'm using recharge but am curious if great white is a better product, or can they be used in conjunction? The interwide googly web doesn't seem to have a direct answer maybe I have just over looked it. Happy Gardening

problem with Advanced Nutrient GroMicroBloom ! I took a photo, I hope you can see small particles from fertilizers in the water!!
I have a problem with fertilizers!! why are some particles floating in the water on a new three-day solution similar to those that have settled on the walls of the pot! that is why some kind of sediment and brown flakes and small particles that float appear on the new solution!

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).
After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200. I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new). Should I increase EC of the feeding water? I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.

any other feeding recommendations?
For my next grow I'm gonna do something very similar. I used Canna A+B, with about 8 feeds of PK and a little Cannazym. Does anyone know what else I could use to supplement the feeding, preferably from Canna? My main issue is the tightness of buds, but probs insufficient lighting

Minor compost tea - how long will it keep
I have a 5 gal bucket of dechlorinated water, ph 6.5 and ppm 300. Watering seedlings to the bucket is going to last a while until empty. I wasn’t thinking when I made it up. How long will this be okay to water with? I have bubblers in it and keep it covered.
