Hi friend, it will take so long to adjust your run off pH in soil to reach your desired pH.I would say you should stay with water pH around 6.5 whenever you watered.Happy Growing...

No I wouldn't counteract it with a higher pH Tbh . Try feeding extra volume water/nutes to get your desired pH if possible . That's what works for me but I'm in Coco.

Phosphorus? Potassium? CalMag? What is going on here?So in week 8 after flushing with EC 0.4 and giving extra PK 13/14 afterwards (EC 1.9) there are still problems occurring. I personally think it’s a deficiency of potassium and phosphorus. Can anybody give me some advice or tell me how to fix it? Thanks!

Should I use a pH up -product?After mixing nutrients with my tap water, the pH of the mix is around 5.5. Should I use a pH -up product? Plant is showing a slight nitrogen deficiency. My tap water base pH is almost 8.0, but the Biobizz nutrients bring it way down. I am using 50% of the recommended dosage.

Yellowing a bit too soon During the second week, leaves started to look a little bit yellow. The first true leaves yellowed way too soon. I'm guessing lack of nutrients. It never showed signs of drought or overwater stress. Your thoughts? I planted it into larger 2.5 liter container now.

Ph Issue I want a Ph of 6.5, but when I check the runoff Ph I get 5.9 or 6.0. I just Ph'd the feed water at 7.0 to get around 6.5 where I want, but the runoff stays around 6.0. Any idea what's causing the Ph not to go up to where I want it at 6.5?
