Newb here, would this be possible/super inconvenient?

Hydro checklist (others please chime in)

Perfect world this is the goal. Fudge where you need to

Below:
RO water
Cal mag to 100ppm on the 500 scale.
Grow nutes light feed schedule to 300ppm.
Add the micronutrients last
Ph to 5.8
Temp at 70-72
Active bubbling
H2o2 (amount based on water volume and % on the bottle.)

Above:
Temp to 78
Rh at 60%
Leaf temp about 76
Veg spectrum
18 on 6 off.
200ppfd or less if you are having issues.
Very light breeze at this point

You want night time temps to drop a bit. This will happen when the lights go off. Can also cause an rh spike. Too much rh can cause fungal issues so keep an eye on it


This is the slow down and recover plants in early veg formula I would start with.

A lot more to talk about but let’s start there compared to where you are
In my experience the recovery speed difference is night and day within these parameters.
 
I appreciate the encouraging words :) I am currently trying to get water from the tub(tote inside) about 40ft(same floor) to the res just to fill and do a leak check. Will also have to do the water change the same way. The RO is installed about 30ft from where my RO barrel will b,that barrel will b right next to the res

If you just want to move the water into the new container to do a test, rather than test any connections, just use a hose to siphon from one bucket to the other.
