Maintaining the soil pH

GrowmieDeLaStreet
GrowmieDeLaStreetstarted grow question 3 years ago
I give pH'ed water, never more than 800ppm and I still always end up with lockouts. I used to not give water untill runoff but now I do. What to do after testing the runoff? It's currently at 6.0 even after a flush with 7.2. Ask many questions I need to know what I'm doing wrong.

Well 6.0 to 7.0 is the range for soil ph. Don't water past 7.0 mph water. Soil holds your nutes, so you should only be feeding once in a week or 2 if you can get away with it. When you check soils ph and ec from the runoff, you need to check the very first drippings that comes out. Soil grows aren't like coco and such that needs food every feed. 6.0 is ok to be at with soil. 6.5 is best throughout a soil grow. Just plain water until you see all new growth is green and healthy again, before adding nutrients.
