So I dropped the Rhyzo from my nutrient mix and bought a cheap RO water filter,, what a difference, the PH is now spot on when adding Canna A , B and the calmag and is not rising nearly of much over a few days.
The reservoir is clear no more murky water.
Plants look ok too,, BONUS !
Im going to have a first go at LST this week.
if you'd like,,check my Northern Lights scrog and my purple haze greenhouse diaries for ideas on training/trimming/defoliation, i'm far from a pro,,but do use the method to promote bud sites as you mentioned above..
Looking good and progressing very nicely !! Good luck with the grow !
