6.4 roughly for soil. It will slowly bring the ph down with time. Good luck and happy growing

I'd run it at 6.2 for the entire grow. It should stay in range, if it doesn't something is going on inside your medium.

Watering and protection
Blessings 1) Is it ok to water the plant with spring bottled water at 6.8 pH? Tap water is 5.5-6,2 pH where i am so i am not sure. Any natural or organic solution to raise pH of water at home? 2) See the protection dome i use, at what stage is it safe to stop using it

Yellow leaves
The lower leaves turn yellow Is it due to a lack of nitrogen, or is it self-defoliation of the plant? (photos at week 5) I look forward to your advice) Should other leaves be defoliated or left as they are?

runoff PPM extremely high.
So, I am using tap water and its ppm is between 300-400. However I just checked by runoff water PPM and it came over 2500 with ph around 6. I have not used any fertilizer whatsoever and the soil is BioBizz Ligth Mix. What could be causing this issue?

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?
This may be a stupid question but if it says soil is already ph'd like ffof does that mean when feeding nutes I do not have to ph my water or still ph the water after adding nutes?

I need a little help with Advanced Nutrients. Without the help of ppm.
Hello, a friend confused me with the use of Advanced Nutrients, this is the easiest way for me to conclude, question. We have A, B, C nutrients, each of them goes 1ml per liter, on 1l we put all 3 components A, B, C each one ml per liter, or only one milliliter goes to each liter

High Runoff EC. Possible toxicity?
My runoff EC keeps climbing, I've watered just plain water in between feedings to try combating it but it climbs back up. Am I doing that right? Should I be diluting my solution and keeping the ratios the same? Please, any advise is welcomed
