Back again to ask for some more advice.

Been using Athena Blended line in a DWC system.

Saturday I refreshed my res and balanced the water to 5.9 PH, came in at about 2.4 EV and 1250 PPM and was in line with the recommendations of the Athena feeding chart.

Next morning my PH was down to 5.6. I applied Athena balance to get back to 5.9

This morning I’m back to 5.6

Researching, it looks like the most likely culprits are either root rot or over feeding. If EC and PPM are staying roughly the same but water level is going down, would that indicate a likely over feeding issue?



Pics attached. Which solution would you guys try first?
