Ph your water last thing. The nutrition has different chemistry and they alter ph. So always set it last. Good luck and happy growing 🌱🌱🌱

Plant health assessment (Leaf coloring and nutrition help)
Sorry for bombarding you guys with questions, but it's getting serious now, right? Anyway, my leaves are getting funky colors and I do wonder, what is causing this? Is this normal? I have used the bloom nutes as in my diary once this week, rest was distilled watering.

Molasses
Molasses when watering or no ? I know people use it for compost tea & flushing but I’ve been using it in my water (1 tbsp) for past few watering. Should I do this or just use it for flushing?

Subsrtate ph is too high
From the every beginning my ph monitors (soil sensors) are showing ~ph7. I drained it with ph 5.2 solution for two times already, but I still have ~ph6.8 - 7 in both of my pots. Will it hurt my sweet babies? How to make soil ph lower without damage them? Please help me.

I just gave some Canna PK (25 days since 12/12). Is it too early ? Bruce Banner 60-65 days of flowering
Closed irrigation hydro system with clay balls. If it is too soon, will I have issues ? And what PH do you use ? I read it should be 6.3-6.4 at this stage but Canna advises 6.2 max. Thanks !

Watering a auto seedling properly.
If you have a seedling 1 week old in a 3 gal pot how do you water I hear watering till run off but wouldn't that be to much as the roots haven't reached the bottom yet? I also se people making a small circle around the seedling or others using spray bottles. I tend to over water.

Optimal pH
Is it more important to measure pH of soil or of the water/nutrients used for feeding? Or both? If so what’s the optimal pH? Thanks!

When to water in coco/perlite?
How do we know when the plants need more water when grown in coco? Do I wait until the coco is completely dry up to my knuckle? (as in dig entire finger into coco up to my knuckle) or should I be watering when only the first inch or so of coco is dry?
