Make sure your dKH is between 7-8 and check your potassium levels. Should be around 380 - 400 ppm.

+1 on Alberts comment bro, it's very important to keep you alk in line between 7-8. Potassium is another important element to monitor. I am using pellets but it's the same principal. If your potassium is low I would supplement it with zeovit k balance, it's a bit more costly but I rather use that then using water down Shyte.
