need some emergency help just did fresh res change to bloom nutes and my ph droped 3 points.

Running PBPBloom, Clamag, Roots Organic Trinity 10ml - 5ml Liquid Karma, Botanicare Sweet, Voodoo Juice, and Silica Blast.

have a 9 gallon res i put in 1 gallon of nutes
30mL PBPBloom
7mL Calmag
10ml Trinity
5mL Liquid Karma
15mL Sweet
40ml Voodoo Juice
3mL Silca Blast

droped distiled/RO water from 7 - 4 ph
added 5 gallons distiled water raised it up to 4.3

in the end i put 6 gallons of nutes in the res only 4 of the PBPBloom because of the pH drop.

so needless to say this was last night after all stores were closed so i managed to get the pH up to 4.6 and the plants had to sit in that mix over night. Today i went out and got some pH up and some spring water, added a gallon of pH up and water and mixed a gallon of pH up and res water to finally rasie the ph to 5.65 and a ppm of 1040 and still having problems.

any help would be greatly appriciated

damn near killed em. IMO 1000+ ppms just way too much for them and to have a 3 point swing in a day is a killa. you should be mixing your nutes and water before putting ito res not after. drain that res again and run no nutes for 2-3 days. than cut what u were using in half or 1/4 even. also, I dont see any veg nutes, as these plants will need more N than the calmag contains meaning you will get yellowing as soon as you flower

i have been running the res around 1020-1300 with no problems. I did mix the nutes first 1 gallon at a time before even changing the res the res had veg and bloom transition mix before the res change then just swiched to bloom and the same nutes with the same mix just no grow.

b52 roots organic and liquid karma have a small amount of (N) also the PBPGrow is 3-2-4 while bloom is 2-3-5 plus the calmag
