Can I keep the water/nutes from my flood table res when I clean it out and change it and
re-use it in hempy buckets ?????

No. You have no idea what is left in the water. Ppm will mean nothing at that point because you don't know what the ppms are of.

I've seen people do it for their vegetables and other plants. Just not your top dollar ones.

You could but like @Carolina Dream'n said you have no idea whats been used by the plants and at what ratio. That's why we do drain to "waste". Professional greenhouses test their solution so they can add back to it. Its best to use the run-off on some outside plants or something.
