6.7 in soil is just fine. If it goes over 7.2, then do something.

Soil pH meters are notoriously inaccurate. I'd relly on what the plant is telling you over any preconceived notions of what "should be" you could add a little acid to your fertilizer/irrigation water and see what happens. trust the plant if symptoms show up.

Your plants look super healthy. The nutrients are been taken up. And therefore the remaining run off is spent if thst makes sense. Soil filters nutrients ph and change up/down depending on how well your substrate is hence using enzymes and root stems for optimal results.

If you're using a solution meter. Then you input the PH through adjusted solutions. An enzyme will help ph'in needed nutrients around the root zone. So, healthy bacteria. To test soil PH. You need a soil tester. You can't test soil run off other than ppm..

Soils tend to manage their PH quite well and I would not worry to much about it if the plants are looking good. If it goes above 7.4 that's when I would worry a bit and use more PH down. With soil grows as well its better to mix in some sulpher to lower its PH or lime to raise it. I find using PH liquids in the water just not as affective.
