My friend is having the same problem. He starts with good filtered tap water with an ec of around 200. He has been checking PH daily and adjusting with citric acid because it doesn't react with calcium carbonate and salt out. Anyway, every day it climes from 6 to around 6.8 WTF is up with that?
Strange thing is, only the tub closest to the CO2 hose is doing it - the one with girls a week from harvest time. Could the CO2 be causing this? There is tons of air circulation in the room.
The only thing I can think of is that it takes about a week for the acids to fully react with the bases and reach equalibrium. Maybe it takes a week or more of titrating with acid to create a stable buffered solution.
This is a DWC system.
