Yes getting a ph meter is very helpful. I would recommend staying away from the really cheap ones. You get what you pay for rings true.

Buffering
Hi, I ended up not buffering the COCO as I wasn't aware before I prepared it. I hope the plants survive and be healthy. I bought a Kit with everything but ended up having to buy some more nutrients, I don't know how ignored the buffering phase. Has anyone done the same?

I stopped giving my plants Plagron Silic Rock from mid last week (week 13, week 5 flower). Can anybody tell me if I did right to cut it in flower or does anybody has experience using this nute until the end of their grow? I think this nute is just for veg and early flower.

Ph of biobizz solution
My tap water is usually at 7 / 7.3 PH and I usually drop it to 6.3 / 6.5. Today when I did the mixture of biobizz nutes, the PH dropped to 4 or less. What should I do? I have read to not mess with the ph of organic solutions. I’m using biobizz light mix soil

Looking for nutrient advice: I run RDWC (65L) and DWC (50L), 115L total. Need max pH-stability and clean minerals for high-oxygen hydro. Which pro-line handles heavy feeding best without residue? Documenting all EC/pH data and plant response. Suggestions?

Droopy plant
First thought over watered in a fabric pot feeding 3ml a day in 1L ph’d water, 24 hours later no improvement. Now I’m pushed to a nitro excess or a feed excess as most leaves are shiney solid green. Still using oldtimer grow as 5 days into flower. Should I flush and move to bloom

any other feeding recommendations?
For my next grow I'm gonna do something very similar. I used Canna A+B, with about 8 feeds of PK and a little Cannazym. Does anyone know what else I could use to supplement the feeding, preferably from Canna? My main issue is the tightness of buds, but probs insufficient lighting
