Im using botanicare pure blend pro and my PH jumps from 5.8-8.0 over the course of the day.(please no "omg thats so much!!" responses, I need info not dumbass comments)


What nutes have PH buffers, how well does it work, and what level does it stay at?

My ionic nutes seem pretty well balanced, i get bored of checking the ph levels no matter what system i ran, in the end i just checked them once a week and still didn't see much difference.

Not so much ebb and flower more of a drip irrigation but much a similar thing instead of filling it with feed quickly and draining it, just doing it slower but the way its set up its not too different.

you will know if nutes have buffer in it when you add it to the water and the ph drops slightly. Like my GH my micro drop the ph a bit, grow a bit, and also bloom a bit.
