When soil like ffof says soil is already ph'd to 6.3-6.8 does that mean I do not have to oh my water when adding nutes or should I always ph my water?

Defo ph your water growmie think of it like this your not actually feeding the plant your feeding microbes in the soil that are feeding on the nutes and the sugars that your plant produces at its roots then as they die off and decompose your plant feeds on them and that's how it takes the nutes up but also think of your soil as being a sponge what ever you put into it it will hold onto it for a good while so if your soil is ph right then you add water that's not ph perfect then the soil will be holding that water so everytime bro just ph everything you put in that's how Batman does it better to be within the range all the time bro

pH your water always after you gave the nutes in it. Just use and organic pH - cause minerals ph downs can damage the microbes. I mean when you grow organic only. Also you can let your water stand for 24 hours before u use it, this drops the amount of chlorine in it. 👍

Hi, I'm a noob but I'd say ALWAYS PH your water after you've added nutes. Cheers
