solid nutrients tend to be more concentrated than liquids. Make sure that the new fert you use is good for a hydro grow. If you want a solid type, how about supernatural?

Got some buckets during a water change using powdered nutes and they are growing great. Those numbers I put up were even more off than what I was calculating. For the dry nutes I was expecting a ppm of 600, instead what I got was around 1150. That was from an online calculater so it was obviously a flower ppm and not veg. So powder is double the value from even the rediculous numbers I put up earlier comparing it to general Hydroponics.

I have approximately 1100 lbs of dry nutes right now stored in weather tight containers. I've had them for a couple years now and had been using them outside in soil and in my soil Grows in my grow rooms. All of it is hydroponic nutes. Also have the calcium nitrate to match. Just have to order Epsom salt so I'm set for a while on nutes.

I did not use Cal mag at all in my last mix and the ppm shot up again but all I'm doing is adjusting it down. After 2 days it starts to level off.
