Nute Question (G.H. Flora trio)

I am using the General Hydro Flora trio in a single bubble bucket closet grow. I am keeping my PPM under 400 while my babies are small, but will increase soon. My question is about the additional nutrients outside of the flora trio in a bubble bucket.

Which additional nutrients would you suggest for a B.B., and are there any that you consider to be necessary for increased yields? I have read quite a few threads but can't find the answer specifically, just references in answers to other questions that are inconsistent.

Thanks in advance, and happy growing!

If you're using ro water which you should be, CaliMagic is a really nice additive. Also, follow this chart. Not the bottle.

My bad, I meant I'd Google it, but thanks for the help!
I have noticed that since switching to the bucket without a water pump my ph is much more stable, is that from the top feed I had causing more evaporation than a closed bucket
 
Sometimes pH will move because plants are selectively uptaking one element more than others... Fixing the general hardness of the water helps loads in having a stable pH.
 
I've been using distilled gallons, 0 ppm and 5.6 ph out of the jug. Might invest in an ro system if I ever expand. My tap water is horrendous

You should be buying the water from the machines for $0.30-0.50/gal rather than buying gallons of distilled. That machine uses a reverse osmosis membrane and comes out at 0ppm just the same. Just buy 5 gallon water jugs and fill them.
