Will give that a go, much appreciated! Thank you

Hi thanks for the reply. Forgot to mention my nutes. Yes I do the same thing only run synthetic A + B. :( yeah I’m thinking of abandoning the Wilma and setting up an aeroponics sprinkler drip to waste system. I have a feeling when the waters on the top tray and dripping down into the red it’s...

Thanks for the advice everyone, much appreciated!

I’m using RO water with calmag supplement. My tap water is around 0.7 EC on its own so no way I can use that. Might switch to different nutes see if that’s the cause, thanks for the advice. Nothing on my nutes about waiting to pH. I’ll give it a try though. Always add them in the correct order...

Update: the increase in nutes didn’t pH buffer. Had a rise from 5.5 to 7.3 in under 4 hours. Still a mystery

Thanks for the reply! Not using organics, normal canna aqua range, running a sterile rez so my calcium hypo would kill off living organisms so using synthetics. Appreciate the advice though!

Now trying to increase my nutrient content in the water to act more as a buffer in case it is the plants utilising nutes and raising pH. However, I’m doubtful as my EC/PPM hasn’t changed much. Will update.
