Perfect. I usually do 15 min for silica then ph down 10 min part a then add b and once dissolved i pH down and add hydrogaurd... then pop back in an hour or 2 as water that comes straight from the tap will rise anywhere from a point to 0.4 if no buffer.So given this additional info, it's got me thinking. I'm going to do a change out once I finish up work for the day. They've drank enough to warrant a top off now, and pH has crawled up five points overnight, EC staying the same. Will modify my process slightly. Instead of what I listed above, I plan on doing:
Tap, 9 gallons
Protekt, 45ml (last listing was a typo, apply at 5ml/gal)
[Allow to mix for 30min via venturi pump]
pH down to 6.5
[Allow to mix for 10min via venturi pump]
Front Row AG, part A: 27g
[Allow to mix for 10min via venturi pump]
Front Row AG, part B: 25g
[Allow to mix for 10min via venturi pump]
Hygrozyme: 3oz
[Allow to mix for 10min via venturi pump]
pH down to 5.5
[Wait 30 min, adjust pH further if needed]
Hydroguard: 18ml
While this is going to extend the change out process significantly in terms of time, I'm curious to see if it'll lead to a more stable pH. Can't hurt to give it a shot.
