I have a room in flower stage I'm about 3 weeks in and one plant out of 8 in the same room jumped to 8 on ph out of 5.5 after I mixed and balanced the hole room from the same bin and feed them separately less then 12 hrs later that one plant spiked to base any thoughts on that..... the system is a hydroponic system using 10 gallon tots with one plant each that are all self contained
1. 4 gallons per tot changed every 7 days
2. Snoop dog hydroponic nutrients
3.1000 watt hps
4.each tot has large air pump
5.larage health roots
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated this is my 5 grow and I've never had this issue so I'm kinda lost my plants are large so losing one would hurt to grow i know my Scrog net is not right my partner argued on when to flower so they are extra large this time thanks for taking the time to read this

Well if ph is rising and ppm is rising, check for algae.

Res temps, light leaks, etc. Are you running microbes?
You're sure the roots are good?

Temps 68 right were is recommended for nutrients only microbes is mammoth P roots are very health white and lush I'll grab some pics in the morning when my light comes back on no sign of Moss growing plant was fine yesterday before the nutrients were changed

Possibly running the res too strong a ppm, im not a res guy so that would be a simplified guess and probably wrong :-)

My ppm when making the solution was correct along with the water temperature for what my nutrients call for but I just started using this brand so idk maybe your not far off and I need to water down my solution a little also gonna get a new ppm pen mines older and I'm woundering now if it is giving a false reading

Every thing has lvled out today but that one plant is still dropping pretty hard
If its not spiking and ph swinging so much i feel like there was somthing to that res maybe being too strong. Some here are res'perts, i only know the basics, if thats what it was folkow some of these guys and they will get you fine tuned up :-)

I felt like I was dailed in until this lol this is the first time in 5 grows so I'm hoping it's a fluke I am gonna look into it a little more for sure

My last grow had some beautiful nugs but I'm only getting 1/4 gram per watt so there definitely is room to improve
Thats actually quite low - you taking on a lot though so will take time.

First learn to dial that res in on basic a + b :-)
