Yo fellow growers, i got a question?

If I was to make up a nutrient solution and ph the water to 6.0 in 8 liters (1.7 gallons) of water so I can water for the next few days without making up a feed every time I need to water the plants, would an air pump with air stone affect the pH or nutrient strength which is on all the time? I currently have it in tap water to remove the chlorine for 24-48 hours then I add the water into a jug and the nutrients pH the water then feed the girls.

Air stone the water before the nutes.

Should I remove the air stone after 24-48 hours and leave it out and the nutrients and pH will be all good for a couple of days?

Pre mixed nutrients will go bad. Aerate the water in advance. But don't mix food until needed.

Okay thanks for the advice, I'll just leave the air stone in till the chlorine and crap is gone and use as needed.
