How to get PH down

Hi everyone Her run off water is around PH 7.1 so I'm watering this plant with 5.8 PHed solution (biobizz and ph down). Despite of it I am not getting down the run off PH. What should I do to solve this problem? PS - I have already flushed her with 2.5 liters of 5.8 PH water.

A little boric acid citric acid or just flush with the ph you want until it runs out at that ph. Cheers

Do you know the PPM of your run off? My understanding is when you flush soil, you strip it of all the nutrients in the soil.. this will increase the pH of the soil. it's the fert in soil that causes pH to be what it is. if you wash out more fert, your pH will stay higher than you want. worry more about fert content. now you should let the soil dry out because it's not good to keep it wet for a long period. chances are your leaves will go yellow because of the lower fert content now. Raise your PPM back to what it needs to be. And don't drink the Bloom-aid. He's gonna kill way to many plants this month.. 👊
