Ph too high

Middlereef
Middlereefstarted grow question 3 years ago
I’m using Canna Rhizotonic - 4ml to 1.5ltr of water with a ph of 6.5 but after I’ve added Rhizotonic to the the ph goes up to around 9 so I’ve brought down the ph using ph down ⬇️ back to 6.5, am I correct by doing this or shall I just leave it at 9?

Hey dude, get your water, add rhizotonic and then pH down to 6.2-6.5 - dont pH- your water, then add nutes and then pH- again cause it is a waste of pH- (and has other implications).

Noooo do not feed that 9 PH. Bring it back down with some buffering solution to the proper PH you want to attain for your specific grow.
