Ph help please

So everything with my grow was going great, then some tornadoes went through and I was without power for a bit, now my ph in my tank keeps jumping around and I'm getting lockout bad. I try to keep it between 5.8 and 6.2, I'll get it to 6.0, it will hold for a couple days, then it will drop to like 5.0, I'll dose it to 6 again and an hour later it's 5.5. There's a bunch of variables so I'll try to fill in everything I can below.

Light on, 84f/53% hum

Growing in 60/40 coco pearlized

Using RO water with ml per gallon balance, 1 ml gal CalMag

Using cropsalt as directed + .4ml gallon Runclean

Reservoir is 11g, I mix 10 gallons nutes roughly every 3 days. I'm mixing nutes in res by adding part A to the water, turning on a strong pump and letting it mix for 15-20 mins, then dump my part b in, add run clean and ph adjust. The pump is on a timer to run for 15 mins every hour.

I am using airdomes set to run when lights are on

There appears to be mycelium growing in my pots despite not using any additives

My biggest theories,

1.Mixing in the tank is causing nutes to bind and dropout, I should get a stir mixer, mix my nutes by adding them to a half gallon of water, then add that water to my reservoir

2.My Ro water, adding Cal Mag and Balance to try and buffer it, are throwing off the levels in the cropsalt

3.The air domes are the culprit. I have heard airstones can make your ph creep up, but can they also make it creep down?

Anyways, I'd love to hear some theories and feedback. I'm a longtime grower but new to autopots

Best online shops/eBay stores

I recently switched careers and went from managing a warehouse where my outfits consisted of wearing a pair of steel toes, jeans, and a shirt or hoodie. I now work for the Village government of a semi-posh town in a front facing role.

I have been in a scramble to build my wardrobe and am pretty good at finding deals. I bought a few watches and cologne from Joma. I ordered a good pallet of twill shirts from Charles Tyrwhitt because they were only like $40 each and they get good reviews . I had a few pairs of Allen edmonds I got on clearance a few years ago but Florsheim had a 60% off sale so I picked up a few more pairs. I got 5 dkny suit jackets and a camelhair overcoat for under $150 total from Bristol apparel, and I got 3 wool/ cashmere peacoats from Quince from Revive Live on ebay for like $100 total.

Does anyone have any other good resources for finding great deals? Other than Bristol apparel and Revive Live, know any good ebay stores for clearance/return deals?
