Mine gets yellow/orange once in a while - I attribute it to the amount of iron in my water... nothing to worry about!

FloraKleen is being to kleen
I used FloraKleen to flush my coco/perlite medium in between veg and bloom. Since then, I have fed, flushed, fed, flushed, etc.. Going in, 700 - 800 PPM but runoff is 300 - 400 PPM... Is the FloraKleen still in there, should I do a massive flush? WTF!?

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?

Potential overfeeding
Hi, this is my first grow and I'm running synthetic nutes in a biobizz light mix soil. After today's feeding, the run off came with 4000ppm when I usually get 2500-3000. I hear that you're supposed to get that when using part organic soil but 4000 seems problematic. Any ideas?

Ph changed from 6.3 to 6.8 two days after adding nutes/vinegar to bring ph down. Tested too soon? How long to wait to check water ph after treatment?
Water that i had ph’d was sitting at 6.3 had jumped to 6.8 two days later. I’m assuming its because when I mixed i tested immediately after without letting sit for a while (shook jug after adding vinegar/nutes ~30 sec). Curious if i tested too soon or it adjusted while settling

Hi, Might be a simple question but I need to make sure. I am using Flora Trio to grow and I am not sure how much nuts I should use. Example, if they say 5ml of each on week 4. If I water 3 times, should o split these mls into the 3 watering or it would be 5ml per watering?Thanks

Soil pH not adjusting even after watering pH water.
So Far I've been 6.5-7 pH water, & organic ferts BioThrive Grow, Bloom & CalMag. The soil pH doesn't seen to go any below 6.5; even though I've been feeding 5 pH water to make it lower. Why is this happening? What to do? Does organics in the soil auto-adjust the pH all by itself

PH meter was wrong
So I learned my lesson by not checking the calibration of my PH meter. It was off by .6 and I don’t know for how long. The run off of my plants are right at 6.0. Using FFOF soil. Will it bounce back now that I recalibrated my PH meter or do I need to flush all the plants.
