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

Math check.
Making my own bloom booster, aiming for a 0-10-10 ratio. I use powders and know that 1 tsp = 5ml. If make up a 1 litre solution, to achieve 0-10-10 would that mean 980ml of water 2 tsp of mono-ammonium phosphate 2 tsp of potassium sulphate?

Soil ph?
When I test my soil one of the four plants is a little closer to seven every time the others test at a perfect 65 should I worry about this much?? I personally don’t think it’s a big deal I just want everyone’s opinion any input would be great.

Did I give too much fertilizer??
So I decided to add in some soluble fertilizers. I gave it a 1/4 tsp (50% of recommended dosage) a couple days ago and noticed some yellowing of new growth on the bud sites. Is this a sign of excess potassium and phosphorus? I gave it Fox Farm Open Sesame (5-45-19).

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?

Ec coming out low
Out of my 4 plants, two I am getting a much lower ec reading out of the bottom then what I am feeding in. Should I kick up the nutrients for these two? Does this mean they are not using the nutrients or they are not eating enough?

Verrouillage des nutriments ? Quantité d’eau ?
Les plantes ne semblent pas aller bien. J’ai une décoloration sur les bouts des feuilles et sur certaines, les feuilles pointent vers le bas, elles ne stretchent presque pas, je pense à un Nutrient lockout, qu’en pensez-vous ? Quelle quantité d’eau devrais-je arroser à 33 jours ?
