What’s going on here? Lol

So growing in coco, hand watering 1 gallon one a day. Got tired of mixing nutes nightly so switched to a 3 gallon jug. Got tired of mixing every 3 days so went to a 5gl jug. Figured 5 days it would be okay, dropped an air stone in there. So that was three days ago and just poured my rations for the night and check this out. (Lt is run off and RT is new nute water from said jug)

Looks like my runoff a day after adding black strap molasses to my nutes. The longer your plants have been growing, the more stuff gets built up in the medium. Maybe that’s what’s going on.

The Rez water changed color. It’s always a red tint. Using GH Flora Trio. Just strange I thought. After typing I do remember that I added like a teaspoon (or two) of isopropyl as well.

Not sure where you get your Coco from, but my run off is always that color the first week or so after expanding, rinsing and buffering until it becomes clearer

This baffles me because I never seen clear nute water

That’s what I am sayin!!! Wasn’t always like that. Normally red from the Micro. It changed over night.

@BeezNeez have you rechecked the clear nute solutions pH or ppms since the clearing?

Not yet. Ima do that tonight. I was in a hurry with water time. So just mixed a new 3 gallon batch and went on living my life. I’ll check it though as AU am curious.

Just checked it. Interestingly, levels are spot on. 948ppm @5.84. Crazy.
