Been growing drain to waste (AutoPots) for about 4 years. Very sucessful using Dyna FP and Dyna Pro mag. Just moved to new location. My water is 8 ppm and 5.8 ph When I mix in nutrients it's about 4.2. When I ph up to 5.8 to 6 in 24 hours it's back down to 4.2. Any ideas? What if I ph up to 9 and then ph down to 6 do you think it would stabilize any?

If your source water is 8ppm then it’s missing a fair amount of minerals for buffering.

try adding between 100-200ppm of Calmag first.

100ppm at .5 scale
200ppm at .7 scale
Or EC0.4.
