Ok sorry been busy today.... so add 8ml of all 3 parts into 1 gal of water then balance and use this to top off water in res.... then stir check ppm if cool balance ph? If not then balance anyways because I will be at water level and just add everyday until my target ppm which I believe we agreed for me to move to 450 ppm?

Ok add 8ml of each to 1 gal of water do not ph or anything. This is what you are going to use to bring your ppm up. You can use an empty water jug that you can put a lid on so you can use it over the next few days. This ppm will be very high.

Add a little at a time until you reach 450 ppm. Add a little then give it a min to mix and check ppm repeat until you have 450ppm. If it's still below the waterline you can just top up the rest with water and you will be close enough.

Last check the ph and adjust it back down if needed. Adding nutrients will bring the ph down so you all ways add nutrients then test ph before ever adding ph down.

Ok and since I balanced her earlier I'll wait until later and I'll get back in there with this mix I'll make.... so the goal is to maintain a ppm of 450 the entire week?
