Ripkord0380 This is after 2 weeks of fighting the PH rising to 8.0
After one week the runoff was coming out 7.2 and the plants had picked up over the next few days after 280 liters flushing and not getting anywhere I realised the roots were that root bound the weren't letting water through half of the pot so had to create 50 or so holes with chopsticks to break the root mass apart after that the ph finally lowered to 6.4
