Coco is very good and easier to correct mistakes in. Your fine with your ph it's within the range. Looks OK.

InspireMeanswered grow question 4 years ago

I agree with theUK 5.5-6.5 is fine. If you're a perfectionist like me 5.8-6.0 is optimal. Run a little more water through than usual and that will raise it. 2 options that work well. Run double your usual watering through. So 1/2 plain ph water at about 6PH then your feed at your desired PH 5.8-5.9. Other option is to flush. Run 3x times pot volume at desired PH then feed. I'd probably go with the first as you dont have any issues yet. You may have a salt buildup causing the PH to drop. Personally I'd do something about it to prevent issues down the line. Dont worry about overwatering, you have drainage and if you follow your usual watering schedule it will be fine. Overwatering happens based on the frequency of watering, not on the volume watered. Just be vigilant with the feed after as it way take a little longer to dry. Hope this helps 🙂

When to start using Cal Mag?Tomorrow my Bruce Banner plants will be 2 weeks old. One plant is showing some yellow on the left side of one leaf. No yellow on any leaf tips and no claws. I believe I may have been under watering. My question is should I/can I start using Cal Mag or should I wait longer?
