I would start by mixing a lower feeding together. And test the pH, you could be over mixing. If you mix a smaller dose together and it comes out the same way then there is definitely something wrong with the nutrients them selves. You could always go buy bottled drinking water and test the pH perfect nutrients out on that. Also are you sure your pH meter is in adjustment?

I would be either throwing those bottles of pH perfect away or returning them to where you bought them. 2.0 is insane and there is something very wrong with them, or your methods. Whichever, I would stop using them asap! Cheers, Organoman.

And you are adding a ton of chemical nuts without control the ec that is the base, with that nutrients you can throw away the ph pen , if you are in the right ec range your ph will be right too. Without that ec meter you will never grow a good bud with that kind of nutrients

Man 4ml of ec part nutrient is CRAZY, your water is lava! Of course you are getting ph 2.0 , you are adding a ton of ph regulator , I was good with 1ml each, 2of the main phase ( veg or bloom ) if needed. Make sure your ph pen is correcly calibrated and stored ( with a storing solution inside the cap) and only cleaned with a tissue. Also with ph problem you get ec problems with that dosages, and if you see your plant is stunned

I would personally dump the 2.0 ph and start again and get the ph right not worth risking but def don't water your plants with such a low pH

Do not water with a pH of 2.0! In soil you want 6.2 to 6.5. That's what I do in my soil grows. Something is wrong for pH perfect to bring it that far down. Check you pH of tap water before using it and after. What order are you mixing the nutrients?

Hello there. It is common practice to not use PH up after you have used a product to make the pH go down in the same reservoir of water. Better to dump it out and start over with the proper amount of PH down. My water where I am from comes out at about 9.5. I use approx 7ml of PH down in 3 gallons of water to get it down to 6.5. Nice plant BTW! Hope this was helpful! Good luck 👍😎
