Week 2, leaves yellow-ish mottling, pH too high?That's my guess for now. I was going to use Blumat Tropf hooked up to tap but house water seems too basic. Only way I can think of remedying is to hook Blumat Tropf up to reservoir and make sure the water in it is the appropriate pH. Will that be stable?6y ago

AutoPot system: moisture of the medium does not stop increasing if turned onI noticed the moisture of the medium (50% coco, 50% light mix, based on a layer of expanded clay) is getting higher and higher with the AutoPot system (now at ~45%). I stopped it for now. I'm wondering, if that is normal? What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions someone?Week 5

Ph drop in water reservoir (drip system)Using a drip system with water reservoir.
Last 2 weeks I have been having trouble keeping the Ph in range.
The routine is fill the bucket, add nutrients, ph down to around 6.5 if needed. But it drops to 5.5 over a few hours even when adding Ph+ it will drop to 5.5 after an hour.Feeding. Automatic systems
