yup, that was the one i mixed after the one you suggested
so was in the "original" res, talked to you, changed it out, then went a day or so, and then made a new one last night, checked this morning and then checked after work tonight.

Ok then go back an hr later and readjust…. Co2 builds up in the water supply and since its a closed system under pressure it forms carbonic acid… after it cones out if the tap it releases the carbonic acid as co2 and the PH rises as a result.Yeah, I’m sure it’s around 7, Yes sir, I add my nutes then PH and mix thoroughly
Im not 100% this is the case here but it aeems most likely to me

It’s better than nothing, definitely something to go on
Otherwise I’d have no clue the “why”

can the plant uptake phosphoric acid?Ok then go back an hr later and readjust…. Co2 builds up in the water supply and since its a closed system under pressure it forms carbonic acid… after it cones out if the tap it releases the carbonic acid as co2 and the PH rises as a result.

I figured it could, is it possible it can take the phosphoric acid out of the water and making it more akaline?In a round about way yes
