Your ph needs to be 5.8 for hydro.
In hydro they will grow fast

Mine usually stays the same once I set it.
Your rez needs to be no hotter than 70.
You can put a frozen water bottle in it to cool it down

It’s what we all do.
Learn from each other.
I never have ph problems so I’m curious myself why it would keep rising.
I know anything above 5.8 and you will get nutrients lock out

I say your looking good @nwnative. Sometimes our new growth has a lighter shade green when it’s young.
I’ve found that my ph tends to rise when my h20 temps are in the low 70s. If you can, try bringing your h20 temps down to 68-69f. Even 67-68f is fine. It’s not till the h20 temps get down to 64f, that you can harm your plant.
The lower the h20 temps the higher your dissolved o2 will be.
