THE PPM IS RISING FEW DAYS AFTER MIXING A NEW SOLUTION
i just made a 870ppm water and three days after its 1050!!!!!!!!!!
and im toping with the tap water!!!
any ideas why could it be?

Here's a quote from Lucas that might help explain it.

"There are many ways to screw up a bubbler grow. Tops on the list is using too small a nute volume, which most folks in a bucket experience.
The problem with buckets, besides having to lift the lid off to change nutes, is that the amount of nutes is so small that evaporating a single gallon out of it, which can happen in one day under 250watts, will cause significant nute overconcentration. This will also create large pH swings. Also, with such a small volume of nutes, you will need to change out the whole mix very frequently, which many folks wont do because it is such a pain to lift the lid off the bucket. Then they will have pH problems, root rot problems, and plant health problems."
