adjusting ph level with BioBizz Light Mix and coco mix

Zweibelstarted grow question 5y ago

I have been adjusting my ph level to around 6.2-6.5. Now I'm wondering whether this was a mistake (see previous post), since I'm using BioBizz Light Mix (60%), coco coir (30%) and perlite (10%) as my substrate. Our tap water has a ph level of about 7.3.

Hi Zweibel, 6.2-6.5 is absolutely perfect. What I can say is, the moore dead material you have in the soil, the moore pH fluctuations you'll have. I'm having the same situation at my actual run, especially at the Purple Haze. My mix was 15% perlite, 30% coco coir, 55% Soil. Next run I'll reduce to max 30% of the inert materials (15% coco, 15% perlite) Hope this will help. Cheerz mate and good luck. OimRausch

You should always keep your water PH level as close to 6.5 as you possibly can. So to answer your question: no, it wasn't a mistake.
