low pH problemsI discovered that I had irrigated with water at pH 3.5 for at least 5 days.
yesterday I used water at pH 5.7 and today I think it will increase to 6, but I noticed that burns are already starting to appear so should I continue like this and hope for the best or do a root wash?5 years ago

Which plants to keep?How do I choose which plants to keep in the tent?
I’d like to keep 2 of the 4. The other 2 will go outdoor in 20 days. So might top again
2 the right have been growing thicker. Bushier, a bit bigger fan leaves. But a bit slower.
2 on the left skinnier, longer braches. A bit quickWeek 6

Fertilisershello! I'm using a prefertilised substrate with NPK 12-14-24 (Plagron lightmix).Which nutrients should I consider to buy next?
Plagron offers a NPK 3-1-3 or 4-2-4 for growing and a 2-2-4 or 3-2-5 for blooming. Beyond brands, what ratio should I look for, for what elements?
