I do not believe hydroton has nutrient holding capacity to effect run off.could also be a build up in your media depending on how you flood etc...
more info on your setup may produce more answers.
do you just test the reservoir or do check the run off or media too?
It really might just be as simple as take a pint or quart or res solution and replace it with distilled or RO water that will lower the EC and hopefully get the nute buffers working to go get back into falling water and static resultsI do not believe hydroton has nutrient holding capacity to effect run off.
I get what you are saying. I have been trying that one as well.It really might just be as simple as take a pint or quart or res solution and replace it with distilled or RO water that will lower the EC and hopefully get the nute buffers working to go get back into falling water and static results
Have been running the greentree bucked Ebb and Flo system as of late. I see the PH going up a couple tenths over 2 days and the PPMs going up as well. Reservoir water is dropping but the PPM go up. If the system is completely dialed in would the PPM's go down as the reservoir empties?
Yucca extract is good for helping to break apart built up mineral salts if that’s the path y’all talking, it could be some residue or something.I run the same setup. I also run a blue lab ph meter with a doser pump with ph down. I also top the reservoir every day especially in summer time when it’s a little warmer. If your ppm is going up after each watering, try flushing with fresh clean water and use some enzymes to flush out any salt build up. Ppms should drop gradually after each watering and as you top off with fresh water. I keep my system at 5.8ph.

Hi there, where did You find that Picture. I would like to go to the website and read what else they have to say.Use this as a guide line it pretty spot on, so by what you said the plant is drinking more than eating so lower the EC rather simple fix.
