I have a buddy running a flood table using the Home and Garden nutrient line with the AN Mother Earth Super Tea (MEST) and is having an issue with his PPMs and PH fluctuating. He's got strawberry cough in a flood n drain table in hydroton. At first we thought his medium was retaining some acidity, and then I thought the organics breeding micro organisms was doing it, but we can't seem to get ahold of the problem. Any ideas or thoughts would greatly help. I had him clean the table and the hydroton pretty well prior to transplanting so to alleviate any problems but still can't figure it out. THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE Using R/O water as well of coarse.
edit: ALSO I was under the impression that organics had nothing to attach to and grow on in a hydro system, especially considering he's using hydroton and doesn't have a sock in his res?? I've also heard that some tea's and or micros breeding at incredible rates when introduced to to certain ferts or nutrients?? Any ideas or comments, the education is greatly appreciated!!
