Why is my hydroponic nutrient solution pH dropping?

If you notice that your recirculating hydroponics nutrients pH is becoming more acidic (pH going down) and wondered why the pH is drifting then watch this! Using cilantro (coriander) growing in Grodan gro-wool under an Gavita Plasma LEP270 growlight, we demonstrate how fast growth can place huge demands on your hydroponic nutrients and how to adapt.

Thank you so much for the great info!! But this was way too short, please if you can and have the interest, expand on the ph drift and the goal to be sought in hydro nutrient res setup?

More food for thought ::: If you are watering through soil that is actively breaking down, the humic acids from the soil breakdown make the runoff more acidic. More importantly, your nutrients might not be pre-chelated. Nutes chelate via their positive and negative ion sites that attract ions, which attach to other nutes via side-chaining and more importantly, they attach to natural chelates like amino acids that attach to protein transports that carry the nutes from the roots to the canopy. If your water is becoming more acidic, it is because your nutrients are stealing positive cations in order to chelate, and leaving behind runoff high in negative anions. Relatedly, as nutrients break down into smaller pieces (catalyze) eventually they become ions as well. Nitrogen will break down into Nitride anions, which are negative, and create a more acidic pH.

I always seem to have to trickle some "pH up" into the res. almost daily, could algee on my rockwool be lowering the pH? and great video by the way!

I don't trust people that dislike cilantro. They're probably the same people that buy salsa in a jar, from a store..

Hi there. If I went down the hydroponic route rather than the aqua phonic route. Are there organic chemicals you can use (that's if there's such a thing) 👍👍👍

Wicked setup however you need air stones in your res it is a must for circulation and it increases your PH to go up not down.
