lb what do u think of a ro machine that makes 5 gal. of ro water & 55gal of waste water
just checked the ppms are stable at 840if your ppm dropped, i would say yer not over feeding and the ph raise is just from unstable water/nute solution. just my guess tho.
SoG, something is in your res.
you should not be getting 140-160ppms from your RO res
doknowhey sog doesnt root exceluraters make ph rise with organic nutes
not to ride House & Garden dick or nothing, but thas where they are different and why House & Garden rocksi used hygrozyme and it would raise my ph from 5.9 to 7 in 10 min. iwould bring it back down and it would go right back up again. so i left it and the next day it started to come down on its own

im going to try house & garden after this grow. using pure blend pro this round. had enough left over from the lastnot to ride House & Garden dick or nothing, but thas where they are different and why House & Garden rocks
most if not all of their additives will not affect the pH... they are rock solid , infact mixing instructions call for you to pH base nute soup then adds its additives
i dont like hygrozyme...
im going to get a new ro machine. i think the merlin or rainsofthmmm....iono
hydro logic RO systems use a 3.1 ratio i blv
pound for pound, i couldnt find anything cheaper nor for the same or higher amount of GPD
ok well i tried to find it... someone wanna give me a post # ?? i didnt see it in the last 20 pages.. unless i missed it somehow.dont add cal mad to the nutes mix, add it separately to the res
you can read more few pages back

CAL-MAG MIXING: we were having problems and the guy at the grow shop told us this about the cal-mag. when you mix the cal-mag mix it directly in the res/water when you mix it with other stuff it combines with other chemicals and turns into a completly different chemical and is no longer beneficial to growing. so pretty much when you mix it with any thing but water it screws it up.
we had spider mites one day went and got the sm-90 sprayed they were dead and gone sprayed 2 more times to make sure havent seen 1 since.
im the one who posted it its in the 170s i belive if you cant find it pm me and ill let you knowok well i tried to find it... someone wanna give me a post # ?? i didnt see it in the last 20 pages.. unless i missed it somehow.
Chef
here you go cholo chef
but i dont buy it
as i always thought you was supposed to always mix the base nute to fresh water...fuck having 5 buckets tryna mix each nutrient then mix in...lol i just add little water at a time stir and mix...never had problems.
however, im not discrediting anything...cuz i guess shit can happen
