OK, OK, I think I'm back on steady ground. In the end, I think the molasses was the culprit. Once I switched from molasses and Epsom salt to CalMag, the nute solution stopped turning a thick, coffee brown, and the pH stopped fluctuating so wildly. My yield definitely took a hit, and my ladies look ragged as hell, but the buds are sticky, and stanky, and I learned a good lesson for my next go round wit these auto pots. I can feel it; I'm gonna knock the next grow straight out the park. 4sho
