Advance Nutrients PH Perfect issue

I am asking what order these should be added? I know A then B but what order with the additives ? Big Bud, Bud X and so on. PH A plus B then the others is what I had been doing. I read where someone was saying additives the PH. Thanks to whoever can help me along.

I've been adding A, B, Bud Factor X, Big Bud coco, Rhino Skin. I don't adjust pH.

This is just my experience.....not trying to tell you what to do.
I found RO water to be more of a pain than help. Used PH Perfect also. I still needed to adjust the PH after adding all the supplements.

Now I use tap-water (325ppm), Sensi A/B, B52, a bud booster and PH down.
All is well here.

I threw the a in, then b, then the others (being b52, bud factor x, and big bud).
Don't know if it matters, the only rule I really follow is to not add them before the tank is filled.
I also used calmag plus and terpinator, both from different companies. Didn't have any issues.
Note- I don't typically use bottled nutes, but a job is a job.

additives first, then A and B.

I use hydro PH perfect, but its always 6.5

RO water at start, 6.5
calmag, MegaCrop, Then PH perfect, end result, 6.5
add .5 ML per gallon of PH Down, gets me to 5.7 stable

So some of you use PH Perfect & still use PH up or down. Hmm sorta makes me wonder why the need for PH Perfect then? I understand I cannot be perfect bang on all the time with boosters. I’ve had some shitty runs so far. Thought I was mixing incorrectly after reading that boosters 1st then PH A plus B. Thanks guys. PS it’s not my tent or lights either causing my problems.

Base nutrients from most reputable companies has buffers in them to make the nutrients pH stable, Advanced Nutrients is 100% hype and nothing else.

pH perfect doesn't even work if you adjust pH.

The point of pH-perfect is that you don't even have to adjust the pH. You HAVE TO adjust pH with other companies.

what im saying is, I use PH perfect Hydro, and it measures at 6.5 when its mixed and ready to roll. It is supposed to be 5.8 from what my understanding is. and when i add the PH down, it goes down, and is stable for a couple of days. Im not really concerned in my case, because my cocoloco balances it out, and never seems to have problems anyways. love cocoloco, its so forgiving is crazy. But really, has long as your PH isnt 8 or 5, its all good anyways. I did experiment, and put allllll kinds of stuff in, then added PH perfect, and still goes to 6.5..

I have soft water and never needed to adjust the pH and never had pH burn or any other issues, again hype from AN.

I used to grow with GHE and used H3ad's formula (modified lucas for coco), when my pH meter had gone off calibration it caused all sorts of problems. That doesn't happen with the pH-perfect, I don't even own a pH meter anymore.

ps. the pH of my tap water is 7.8

Almost every bagged soil or coco for that matter has buffers in it from the start (unless it’s brick coco) so honestly worrying about ph is worthless unless your running dwc or some other similar hydro grow.
