If it’s dropping that can be a sign of root rot and that’s no good.

Yey very common. Dont go chasing the ph. Unless the plants tell you otherwise. Mix your nutes. Let them stablize a couple hours adjust the ph then change your rez. The ph will swing up and down with a healthy feeding plant. Drastic swings can be a sign of root problems ( ph 4 is a very drastic swing) again though your plants will let you know if there is a problem as long as your listning.

Ideally that swing should take a few days but if you're at a pretty low ec I wouldn't be surprised to see it

700 ppm* my meter converts for me on week 7 thats normal right?

i made a mistake im only at 350 ppm and it says 700 us (<--funky u)

Yeah I'd ay that's about right then.

cool thats acctually pretty low isnt it? should i add more nutes?

Better under feed than over feed. The plants look under fed? Nope? Then dont give them more yet. Keep good notes. When they do look under fed give it to them and make a note and next time you can up there feeding just before they show signs

Agreed, you can always give em more but its hard to take it away

for sure ty!
