I believe it might b the hempy bucket method. Don't quote meet on that as I'm a noob but from what I understand you water until run off in order to alleviate any access salt buildup your medium may contain. When the salt build up is flushed out it is still at s much more concentrated level then when put into the medium so I'm wondering if the reservoir of your buckets is maybe holding a hot mix? I don't know much about this style growing but if the hempy buckets from what I understand almost create a reservoir, like dwc, or might also have to b maintained and watered less often and less nutrients as to avoid to much concentrated nutes in the reservoir. Also do you have to keep the reservoir area temperature with a specific zone like dwc maybe? Just taking shots in the dark to try to help fellas. Sorry if it doesn't
Hey mate...if your looking to achieve pH of 5.8 in the bucket and getting 7 you'll need to flush with 5.8 or less to get down to 5.8. After flushing make sure to add some nutrients to the bucket too...
good luck
