first time flood and drain project, major PH problem.

Hi all.
I have switched from using coco to flood and drain, and this is my first run.
I'm running 18 x 14 gallon tubs with clay pebbles, they are fed from an 80 gal reservoir.
When fully pumped out the nutrient level comes up to about an inch below the surface of the pebbles. It pumps up in 8 mins and drains in 30 mins and repeats every hour.
The temp in the grow space is 27C, the res is situated outside the building and is cooled by a heat exchanger (it's summer here) so it sits around 20C...

How concentrated to make Nutrient Solution in my 13 Gallon RDWC Reservoir for One big Plant?

I am modifying my Power Grower RDWC systems to have a 13 Gallon Reservoir. And in general my tendency has been to make my PPM stronger then what they actually consume nutrient wise! I have done this because they don't seem to burn and because they can consume the whole entirely of the reservoir in one day at their peak flowering cycle. In Veg my plants can drink as high as 1400 PPM which seems crazy. But as soon as I flip the light cycle this drops to about 600-700. .5 conversion And I...
