realized my over-nuting problem, had not been paying attention to pH-ing my water because i kept hearing "dont worry about it with soil until theres a problem." well, other plants had problems, not jacob's remedy so much, but theyre all on the same water schedule from the same reservoir. since water is typically ~9.0 out of the faucet, using pH down to bring it between 6-7
