Here a question have not seen. I am using a drip hydroponic system and have just changed over to the flowering stage of the growth. I have my plants up to 1500 PPM and keeping it at a Ph 5.5. Now the question is every day now I have to add water to the res to maintain the 40 leter level. When I do this of course have to adjust the ppm back up.
I am using Sensi Bloom (2 part) food and in week 2,3,4 will be adding the big bud additive. During these weeks when adding the big bud do I also add more big bud when adding the water or just do it once a week when I flush and change the res.

the ph should not be 5.5 try to get higher, like 6.8

add when you change water every week
just add ph balanced water until resevoir water change
hope this helps

thanks a lot for the info. First time doing this and went Hydro. Nothing like jumpping in with both feet. LOL. Had a bit of trouble at the beginning as the house water to high PPM and through off the formulas. Once got that under control everthing great.
Here some pics at the start of week 4 and have switched them over to 12-12
By the way can someone identify the breed. The person I got the clones from said they were blueberry but his supplier said Kali.
