Hi buddies! Today i have a new issue 🤯 Back from work i found ph 5.4 ... i don't like this thing of the ph going down ... Now of course I do a change of the whole feed, with the new feed I will keep 2.0 EC pH 6.0 My question is this, why does the pH go down?

Usually EC and PH change in opposite directions. So a PH drop would be a sign of over feeding. I do see some leaves that look burnt in your journal, but overall she looks happy and not overfed. But if both are dropping then that is usually a sign of something is growing in the water that should not be or its time for a water change. The only other thing I can think of would be if you were running CO2 as this can cause the PH to drop if your bubbling air from in the tent.
