Soil pH not adjusting even after watering pH water.So Far I've been 6.5-7 pH water, & organic ferts BioThrive Grow, Bloom & CalMag. The soil pH doesn't seen to go any below 6.5; even though I've been feeding 5 pH water to make it lower. Why is this happening? What to do? Does organics in the soil auto-adjust the pH all by itself2y ago

General questions about my growBased on week 5 of my grow, does it sound like I'm on track with nutrients? Any advice on LST or defoliation? The plants struggled since I planted them so I wary of stressing them out. The only thing I'm doing at this point is tucking the leaves so the bud sites get more light.3y ago
