You will have to flush with correct ph and tap water or RO water. Once runoff is coming out and ph is stable then give it another 1/4 or 1/2 gallon, this time make sure it had nutes and correct ph.
I would let the plant dry back half way before doing this to prevent drowning it. If it's SUPER out-of wack then your going to have to, you will do more harm then good waiting.
Then leave it be. Let tent get a little warmer so it pulls more air, make sure fans are pointed on the soil to dry it out.
Of you correctly added perlite or vermiculite then you shouldn't drown the plant.
Goodluck and please consider selecting me as the answer so I can be entered for a chance to win grower of the month contest I would really appreciate your support growmie 😃 🙏

To lower soil pH without overwatering, add small amounts of acidifying materials like sulfur or peat moss gradually. Choose acid-loving plants, use acidic mulches, and monitor pH regularly. If needed, sparingly use pH-adjusting solutions in water, ensuring gradual changes to avoid plant stress.

Water and nutrientsI water every other day. So far I have been using nutrients to bring my water up to the proper EC (ppm). It is always a VERY small amount (1/2 tsp). I haven't noticed any signs of toxicity but I wanted to hear your opinion of my approach and changes that I could/should make

BioThrive Fertilizer Water pH & PPMI tested my BioThrive Bloom+CaMg fert water for the first time ever today; I've been feeding 4.5 pH & 340 ppm fert water solution; Soil pH is 6.7-ish per the Rapitest meter. Should I add pH up solution to make the fert water 6.2pH? What if the soil pH increases over 6.7?

I need a little help with Advanced Nutrients. Without the help of ppm.Hello, a friend confused me with the use of Advanced Nutrients, this is the easiest way for me to conclude, question. We have A, B, C nutrients, each of them goes 1ml per liter, on 1l we put all 3 components A, B, C each one ml per liter, or only one milliliter goes to each liter

PH measuring for Organic GrowersIf I’m growing organically, do I measure my PH still? I heard that the PH up & down liquid isn’t organic & that organic growers should throw away there PH meter because the soil will adjust to what ever PH level I water them with. Is this true? I’m having a cal/mag deficiency.
