MountainMattstarted grow question 5y ago
The pH of the runoff continues to drop below 6.0 with each feed, resulting with me trying to bounce it back every other watering. I would like for the pH to be more stable. Any ideas why this might be happening? I am using Advanced Nutrients pH perfect - Grow, Micro, Bloom.

That probably means you have a very acidic soil. You can add some lime stone to the soil and water with higher pH like 6.5-7 and keep checking it but to be totally honest I hardly ever measure my pH levels anymore 😂 but I only grow 2 plants at a time. I haven't noticed much difference but my ph come out 6.5 from the tap lol

EC madness!!!!About EC. Er...confusing eh? So, if I feed with 1200 and it comes out 2000, I need to lower the feed until it comes out 1600? And if I feed at 1200 and it comes out at 1400 I can increase? Right? Is the whole point of this to give the plant as much feed as she can take?Week 20

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 wrongSo 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.Feeding. Other

Plain water between a few feeds? Smaller doses? (To prevent nutrient burn)So I was wondering (medium is light-mix from Plagron): I've been feeding a full dose of nutes every watering up until now. Would ya'll recommend giving plain water in between every few feeds, or dosing down to be cautious? I don't want to be too late... That happened last grow.Week 7

Calmag overdoseI was stoned and accidentally added way too much calmag to my distilled water when watering yesterday. I meant to add 2 ml into a gallon but instead added 20 ml. I poured 3 gallons of Distilled water through today trying to dilute. Am I screwed now? Is my plant going to die?Week 4
