Ive started 4 clones yesterday in a cheap baking pan from walmart. metal bottom clear top. i originally let my rockwool and 12" bubblebar soak in 5.5 water overnight. i added a drop of superthrive and thats it. clones were dipped into clonex then rootone and put in. theyre in about a half inch of standing water with the stem to the bottom of the tray. the whole setup is placed atop my 8 bulb t5's and i dont have any other light on them. (theres a 400w hps about a foot away whos footprint is below them). im thinking i need to change the water. the waters pH has now risen to 6.4. so the question is.. do i just ph the fresh water to 5.5 again and put it in? i know these plants are prone to not liking that much of a fluctuation. do i need to adjust slowly? in 48 hours when i change it again.. is it going to .9 points higher again? whats the general consensus here with this? thanks in advance.
