answered grow question 6y ago
No. You need to drop it to between 6.0-6.5 for soil. Or 5.5-6.0 for Coco or hydro. A pH down solution will be required or you will have lockout issues. Happy Growing! 🤟😜

Is my Amnesia overwatered?
I've been watering until completely dry with this Amnesia, but the leaves look a bit droopy. I've looked at other diaries of this strain and it looks normal but I was curious if anyone thinks I should pull back on watering even further.

Overfeeding in flower, Flushing in Coco Coir
Hi my plants are very dark green due to overfeeding: I mistakenly fed 4ml/L of Canna Coco A&B for over a week, although 3.5ml is the recommended amount by Canna Now the buds smell pretty bad Should I flush with water, or just half strength nutes? Would this affect my yield? Thx

PH Tanking in Late Flower
6 days ago, 350ppm constant but PH starting dropping hard. Did nutrient change and things stabilized for a bit at 250ppm. Yesterday, same thing occurring with PPM/PH. Roots are fine, PPM now at 200. Is she being underfed now at this stage of flower? Lower PPM more? Start flush?
