I need some help better understanding ph and ppm fluctuations, and what to do to correct it/how often.
I understand that the basics of ph and ppm fluctuations, but here's what I need help with: let's say I do a res change, pH is 5.7 and ppm is 1550. 6hrs later the pH is 6.1 and ppm is 1350. This to me means about the same amount of water and nutes is being absorbed. But should i add nutes and adjust ph now? Just adjust ph and watch the ppm? If adding nutes and adjusting ph, how much nutes? Which ones?
Some people say ph daily and only mess with nutes at changes, others say ph and nute daily. I just want to understand why?
If I don't make sense, I'mhigh ssorry.
