    I also use Promix and perlite and couldn't get a handle on the ph for that mixture until i read what Green75 wrote about using ph at 6.0 for a target range instead of 6.5 like i was told at the local shop. Since changing to 6.0 Things have been much improved! So if you are not trying to hit 6.0 then give it a shot, you will see results!

    right on crovax. A friend of mine had to do that a while back. He said it is a last resort and quick in a pinch.

    some might think quart per gallon alot but use that formula for when you are having issues with plant it will help alot for every time aplication use 1 cup per gallon ive done so with great results.
    if your air pump is good use less
    that is if you use a 3% pyroxide not the concentrate

    Not sure about what you mean by that's seems like a lot, lot of what? I put 2-3 tbls. of peroxide in 5 gallons of my nute solution in a 10 gallon res. whenever I perform a nute change as a precaution. I'm not trying to add oxygen
    , the air pump and air stones provide plenty of oxygen.

    You're doing great! Just one last thing. You mentioned you're growing in the basement; I just wanted to double check that your plants are up off the cold floor (even being on a block of wood or something like that can make a difference). The plants don't like cold roots
