, yes to everything you said let me just add it might be a good thing to add bennies to the tea just to assure it's got that chelation power, but yeah most of it is probably being strict on yourself growmie :trophy: :rocket:

, thanks Nova, I inoculate with great white myco powder and earthworm castings fed with backstrap molasses. I can see being myself being over critical, it's one of the reasons I smoke :blush:. Thanks again growmie!

I ran out of hydroguard and have been supplementing my res with hydro tea every 2 weeks to build up benies since I am not running any type of chilling for my res, So for me H2O2 would be a no go. Tea has kept roots of plants outside in kratky setups bright white and happy with res temps in the high 70f to low 80f. I'm probably being a little over critical as this is my first true hydroponic run.

The armor si can also cause unstable ph if you don't add it to your water before adding your other nutrients.

When you ph adjust the res give it a really good mix the water then wait a few mins before you ph test > each adjustment

They are looking great!! There is definitely something is your feed that is messing your ph up. The maxigro and maxibloom are the most stable nutrients I have found. My ph will hold stable for 2 weeks without adjustments.

, im thinking something to do with the benificials, wether it’s good or bad bacteria it can cause Ph swings. Are you using RO water?

, I've used straight ro, I've used straight tap, I've used 50/50 mix. I mix all my nutes for a while in a 5 gal bucket to ensure no precipitation of the suspended nutes and have a small pump circulating the water within the res along with 2 large airstones powered by a 10 w pump. First thing I do when I open the tent daily is check ph then adjust and work on plants (lst, defoil, etc) and check ph again when done. Not sure if maybe the tnb down is crap, first time using it as I ran out of trusty old GH ph down. I think after this run I'm going to build a platform to put my tent on and use a larger res outside the tent. My res is only 7 gal due to holes in the latching handles on the tote. Thanks for the input and keep the ideas coming!

, unless you’re adding beneficial to every feed you’ve got chance of brown slime especially in res temps over 18c. Wipe the side of your res with paper towel. If a load of brown slime on the side/bottom of res. I would go ahead and do a H2o2 bath in your res, get some new air stones and see if that makes a difference. As your in flower you can use phosphoric acid instead of nitric acid which is more common. 1 more thing this might help If you dump the water in cold then put nutrients in, the PH will change as the water warms up... Good luck, let me know how you get on:v:

, that's what I was thinking just the sharp rise in pH alarmed me. I inoculate bi Weekly with a tea I brew with EWC, great white powder, RO water and fed backstrap molasses.

, how do you go with the molasses in hydro? I tried it once and the res filled up with a slimy foamy film never did it again lol
