Humboldt Nutrients Oneness Program

Hi, new to growing Indoors, Extremely new at hydro, and also new to Rollitup.

I am starting the Humbolt nutrients hydro program Oneness with all the extra nuts listed on the feeding chart I obtained online. Seamag, Seacal, Prozyme, and Roots also mixed into the soup. I airrate the solution for 24 hours but the solution doesnt buffer itsself like the website suggests? Anybody else run into this problem? The Ph with RO water after 24 hrs was 4.6 @ 337 ppm. I am hopeing to start this solution in my homemade drip system and it wont hurt my plans. I am thinking the Ph will go up after my plants start to eat, any suggestions?
Has anyone had luck using this program, what should I expect out of this, How often do I have to add water or when should I change the solution? Do I have to flush my system and plants after each nut batch or is there some kind of science behind it?:wall:

What stage of growth are they in? Your pH is a little low either way, also the PPM may be just a BIT high if they are seedlings or in very early veg. My buddy is growing with the Humboldt Nutrients and they look very promising, not sure about the Oneness program though. Im mixing Botanicare products and HN personally on my Aero grow. Anyone else have experience with the HN line, please share your results :-P

They are maybe 4 weeks into veg, I keep the same mild amount of nutes because I keep introducing new seedlings to the drip system, once my space is filled I am going to start increasing the nutes, but I am really just following the nute recipe HN posts on there web site, so after all the different nutes are added, thats what I end up with for ppm. As far as the PH, HN claims the solution will be low at first but is supposed to buffer itself after 24 hrs to between 5.5 and 7.0, but it didnt do that. I have found that after 48 hrs the solution goes to 7.9 ph. Then I will ad my ph down, which should be later on today when I get home from work.

You must adjust the ph to the correct range, after 24hrs it might change again so re-adjust. After that it wont change again.I use Humbolt and have no complaints

The "buffer" that the nutrient companies use is just to keep pH fluctuation to a minimum. Either way, you are always going to have to adjust your pH at some point and time.

Just got home, and its been a pretty cool day. I just recieved my Jorge Cervantes books, I scored a sanyo ductless mini-split a/c for my soon to be flowering room for free, the only thing is I havent checked my ph levels yet!
