hi there, just signed up but not new to the site.
afoaf has a ph issue where it significantly drops over night, i think he said 2 points. i don't have all the specs of his grow but any info that would help you help him out i can get. it is a deep root/bucket system.
i personally have never heard of this before he asked me, anyone have experience with this kind of problem?
thanks

Is it at the time he does the nutrient change? or does it happen every two days?

maybe his resivour is so small he keeps adding fresh water?. fresh water( outta the sink) takes a day or two to get just right sometimes;.

sorry for the delay guys, been uber busy.
as far as i know his resivour is decent size and he also is reusing the 1st wash. will inquire more to find the exact specs.
also the drop is every night, not every two days. i will get a detailed run down of how/what he is doing and post it up probably in two days.
thanks for the responses.

Hi there, sorry for the delay again. Went out and got some specs. for his grow.
going to start a list i suppose.
35gal reservoir, feeding 8 plants over the course of right about 25ft of hose. Doing two washes per reservoir only adding h20 to balance his nutrients.
Speaking of nutrients, he is using General Hydro Fertilizer
*micro
*grow
*bloom
plus
*diamond nector
*flora blend
*flora nector
*flora licious
He was advised to use Cal Mag to help the PH issue, which helped the bloom room, but not the grow room. Keeping the nutrients as close to 1000 parts per million.
Temperatures are roughly 75 degrees Fahrenheit on average in both rooms.
Sorry if that is a bit jumbled, just trying to get you an accurate idea of what is going on. Let me know if there is anything else that might help.
thanks again
