I just bought a gallon of terpinator to play around with, and they say it doesn't have an effect on ppm or ph levels. However after I added it to my res at 15ml/gallon, it spiked my solution by about 2-300 ppm.

I called the company to see what's up, and dude I spoke with said he uses it at 30ml/gallon and his ppm's go up by maybe 100-150. Has anyone noticed such an increase with terpinator?

Anything you add is going to increase your ppm... Except pure water. 300 ppm is pretty light impact... You just have to adjust you total solution by adding a little water so that the ppms remain in the optimal range. Also make sure it's well mixed before and after adding...

That's not exactly true bro. But that's here nor there. Things like voodoo juice or certain fulvic acids like fulpower are ppm neutral. But I add terpinator @20mls a gallon and it raises my ppm about 150. Even if it puts me outside my desired range it hasn't hurt me. But if that makes u feel uncomfortable I agree with the above poster. Just add a little water and u will be fine.
