Hey people.

I know alot of people say to change it every 2 weeks.

How often do you guys change your water/nutrient solution in your reservoir?

I have a 5 gallon res. I change and clean the res every other fill. I'm not saying it works for all. But it seems to work for me.

People who run Lucas Formula use the same rez for up to 3 harvests.

They just top it off and add more nutes.

Here is a thread on RIU that talks a bit about it.

https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/4387-lucas-formula.html

But Lucas said in the "ask lucas" thread that he can use the same rez for up to 3 harvests. Find that thread and read about it.

There would have to be too many ph up/down adjustments.When im running bubblers i change em at least every 2 weeks,After there large and a month into flower i change em every week.Nutes are cheap and my water is free.Ive seen plants look great one day and fucking dead the next.Too many concentrations in a 3 harvest soup!!!!!!
