1st post finally!
Ok first a little background info.
I am running a 3 x 6 flood table, with a 40gal Res. Running a SOG style grow, with 5x5" square pots (with holes up the sides). Pots are running Coco Coir, with about 50% pearlite with a small bit of stone on the bottom of the pot so that the Coco stays put. As for nutes, I am running Jacks classic 20-20-20, I throw in a little Maxi-Bloom (from a lucas run, gone horribly wrong). I usually get the res ppm to ~700, then Ph down to 5.9-6.3. I have the table flooding 1x per day, for 30 minutes.
Ok so that is out of the way, my question is, should I be noticing a drop of ppm in the res? The girls seem to be doing great! Although I seem to notice the ppm climbing rather than falling, I was under the impression that they would drop indicating that the girls are eating?
Oh please RIU gurus, shower me with your knowledge
