Hi mate, if you grow in soil, it works but not optimal. As
@harchy
and
@InspireMe
told you, the best range is 6.0-7.0, in soil. Take care

Hi mate, that's a little high. I'd go for something between 6.0-6.8 for soil. Hope this helps 🙂

Hi the recommended levels for soil are between ph 6 and 7. I would use a little ph down to get it in range.

Magnesium deficiency? How to cure it?
Is this a sign of magnesium deficiency (my other plant has similar spots)? If so, I've read online (on the Canna nutes website) that I should spray the leaves with Epsom Salt (2% solution): is this correct? Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance

Water vs Nutrients
I eventually would like to start adding nutrients to her feedings and wanted to know does it matter what type of water the nutrients are added to, for example: distilled, tap, RO? Or is it just the pH of the water that is important?

Better than standard proportions for micro / grow / bloom?
Hi guys. Advanced nutrients says to use micro / grow / bloom nuts in the same amount for the whole grow cycle. Is it a better way (better propotions) to use them? My plants are in the 5th week of flowering. Thank you kind people :)

Is this yellowing normal or something wrong?
Hey fellow growers, seeing yellowing on the leaves the past few weeks which I know is normal as you transition through flower, can someone help diagnostic the leaf issues in the video this week, I thing that this is just nutrient burn but would appreciate if someone could confirm

Coco grow: the EC of my runoff is consistently 0.2 mS/cm lower as what goes in (1.1 in at this time, runoff is at 0.9). Also, PH of runoff is at 5.8, while 6,5 goes in. Is this a problem? What causes this? Its been 8 days since germination and they look healthy.

pH irrigation / runoff
Why is the pH of the runoff so much higher than the pH of the irrigation water? Is the runoff or the irrigation water more important to consider? Canna Terra Professional Plus and BioBizz pH- The pH lowering effect seems to vanish in the fertilizer solution after one to two days

I tested the pH of my mediums and they were around 7 so, which I thought is too high so I watered with a 5 pH and I think this has brought the medium down to closer, around 6.5. I also put some worm castings for light top feed. Good ideas? Medium at 7 maybe caused yellowing?

Substitute FloraBloom for KoolBloom?
General Hydroponics Liquid KoolBloom NPK is 0-10-10 and FloraBloom is 0-5-4. Are there any other differences between them? Can I add twice the volume of FloraBloom when the schedule asks for KoolBloom?

I was always wondering if im calculating nutrient mix right. For example: My tap water is 350 ppm. In late veg i should feed 800 ppm mix. How should i mix? : 1. 350 ppm tap + 450 ppm nutes = 800 ppm mix OR 2. 350 ppm tap + 800 ppm nutes = 1150 ppm mix I always mixed "1" way

Very abnormal EC Runoff for CoCo Coir - please help on what I should do. I am scared to increase nutes in case I get nute burn
My EC going in is just under 2,000 (The maximum it should be much later in flower according to online) but comes out much lower and is getting lower each (735,467,368 respectively). Online says that Coco runoff will always be higher t- what should I do? I am scared to increase

Growth seems stunted?
I feel like the growth is a bit stunted and she isn’t looking as good as usual. Leaves hanging/curling a bit down and some look a bit blistery (very lightly only). I just did a flush with 5.9ph water 25 degrees and the runout was 6.1 ph and 605 ppm and ec 1210 so I assume 1.2?

PK Boost Timing
By what visual indicators do you determine the ideal timing for giving a week of PK13/14? The stretch seems mostly complete, the buds are thickening daily, and the first trichomes are appearing on the sugar leaves. Should I start now or wait a few more days? Diary for more info
