Canna boost and autopots

HI! I have a question regarding Canna Boost and autopots. Do you use it in a reservoir? The ph is rising faster in res since I added it. The nutrient solution in res also got cloudy and trays became slimy. Since I use airdromes the ph also rised too much.

Adding pk 13/14 completely stabilized ph. It even dropped 0.1 in 48hours. Probably due to some evaporation.

No matter how you do it. (Make up the batch) You are going to have issues with these products. They generally hold a really high PH. And not so good for easy forget and leave for a day or so. Also there's too many nutrients in it. When one nutrient is taken up. The PH of that is left or it just gets thrown off balance. Try using 2-4 nutrients. You'd really be better getting A grow, bloom.& micro.. and you'll have less hassle with PH adjusting. Drop 1 or 3 of them. And after you make up your next res then add them. You don't need to give everything together. Good luck pal.

If your having issues with your nutrients dropping out of solution and clouding out the reservoir, sometimes you have to mix one solution before the other or ph before mixing and adjust later or ph after mixing, sometime the temp of the water your mixing with might cause this to happen if it's to cold or to warm, usually I would go to YouTube and specifically search for proper mixing techniques with the nutrients you're using, sometime it's just as simple as how fast or slow your mixing your reservoir when you do it...Are you checking the the PH in the trays or just the reservoir? Do you have a air stone in the reservoir...My buddy shared a pile of tips with me before I run my first run in autopots and the first thing he told me is always use the blue air stones because the other ones will change your ph....Are you using vermiculite or perlite or clay stones at the bottom of your pots for a buffer zone? There's a few variables to go through if you want you can pm me and ill gladly help out...Ive been running autopots for a bit and love them and my buddy is a distributor and he loves his to...

Hola si tu ph aumenta quieren decir que tus plantas se esta alimentando. Las raices biscosas no son una buena señal. Hay un desequilibrio en tu solucion. Cambia tu solucio estabiliza tu ph entre 6 y 6.5. Veo que tu ph lo tiene en 5.7. Tus ppm tambien puedes elevarlos a 1000 ya que tus plantas estan en un periodo de alimentacio grande. Controla tu ph diariamente y tu ec. Suerte
