damn, I adjusted it a couple days ago, too

Stay vigilant my friends

Do you have RO water?
What is it when it comes out of the tap/well?
I've got very high PH readings myself with well water and my RO system does not budge the PH.

Yes I start with RO (<15ppm @ 7.5pH) after adding nutes pH is adjusted to ~ 5.6, but it keeps rising to ~ 7.5

I was watching venturi YT videos and discovered a tip that works.

I raised my pump from the bottom of the rez, to near the top. This created significantly more flow and bubbles

Baby Update

(popped up ~ Nov 16). Note a few burnt leafs. I had to lower the bubbler tray to prevent light burn. Even the old Amare Technologies SE 220 packs a punch at 20”. Now at ~ 30"

Need to move them to the main tent soon. Gonna put them 2 of them under my BML SPYDR 600 and 2 under the Amare P 3: both ave similar wattage, but the 600 has a much bigger footprint. and leave 2 possible males under the SE 220 for now.

Leafs are greenish- yellow. still dealing with rising pH, adjusting every morning where it has risen to ~ 6.5

No idea why

Plant under the SE 250 almost finished. Temps here have been upper 70s with upper 60-low 70s at night (YUCK!), BUT, starting tonight we’re scheduled for 5 straight nights of < 50* night temps, so I will let them ride, hoping the trichs will fill in a lot more

Recently I read an article claiming that low pressure pumps use considerably less power than a 10w bubbler!

Yesterday, I moved 2 of the 5 babies to another tent and tote. So, I decided to check out whether a 250 gph would be too much. Nope perfect for moving 3 gallons of nutes. I added a crude venturi which creates more air. Plants look good 24 hours later

In the bubbler they all started in (same food/pH) one remaining plant stalk is easily twice as thick as the other 4 AND it already has 6" side branching. It's in the upper right, but much bigger since taking last photo.

May need to take some clones of this one

i only saw sick plants and no big girls..

What are you measuring pH with? It looks way off. Mag lockout and maybe iron too.

Also is the res remote or in the room? Water Temps?

Happy to help if you need me.

Camera does't really get colors right as the CoB spectrum is WW. When I turn it off the mono ring is not NW either
