Hey Mate, what I wanted to add to Chevrons advice. You may drop your pH to 6.1-6.3! In my experience the ladies are getting back better when pH is near to 6. pH calculated on the base of Logarithm 10. That means pH 6 is 10times more acidic than pH7... good luck and happy trails for the rest of the way 🤞 Servus OimRausch

You should be using pH'd water without any nutes. Dropping pH is usually the result of overfeeding. The plant sucks up the water and leaves the excess nutes, resulting in a pH drop. If you have been feeding only pH'd water and no nutes, I have two recommendations. First and most important is to calibrate your pH meter. If it still reads low, flush a little more aggressively, but you'll have to walk the fine line between flushing and overwatering.
