I was whondering so when I change the water say I put my nutes in and have 700ppm now 4 days later it's 300 ppm do you guys add more nutes or do you just add nutes when you do a water change? Like should it be at a constant certain ppm or do you just wait till the next water change

I would bump the PPM anytime it has dropped by 100 ppm or more. I would also consider a larger volume system as this will greatly reduce the frequency of these bumps.

If the system volume is small, like single bucket then just change the nutes out every 3 or 4 days. This prevents an imbalance of your elements.
