Hi lanchita.... unfortunatly if you watered with a 5 ph you surely increased issues..... you will find here growdiaries.com/diaries/28932-let-mother-nature-do-the-job-1st-part/week/138596 a pic with proper range of pH for coco/soil for nutrients availablity 👍 you will need it to properly correct your problem in other hand i think that you are in a combo for few plants.... big N deficiency big Fe deficicency (chlorosis) at least may be some other (magnesium )! ur kush seems to be overwatered in addition. a question : is your pH metter need a calibration or a re-calibration sometimes ? many needs that... if yes proceed to the calibration before a new watering 👍 adding some benificials with innoculation technics could be a great help for the futur weeks cause they acts as a bio regulator (and as a bio fertilizer) in order to break lock out nutes processes ... add tricho and mychrizzae + bacterias will be very useful...even if they took around a week to start to be fully effective..... in the second week in my diary i explain a bit how they works....feel free to take a look growdiaries.com/diaries/28932-let-mother-nature-do-the-job-1st-part/week/140117 spraying a solution with Fe and N could aslo be a good solution for to help plant for a faster and better recovering....use distilled water if you spray. for your plant in veg don't worry. they will recovering soon if u keep the good pH range....for the tangie auto it s a bit late try to add pk at 6.5 pH and see if it improves things 😓 hope this helps....good luck for your grow

Hi lanchita,do you feed al your strains at the same frequency and ratio? And mixing bio nutrients with mineral nutrients isn’t a great combo,the biological life you wanna feed with compost tea can’t survive ph levels below 6. I would switch the compost tea with plagron green sensation. And make sure you don’t use an organic ph- like lemon kick if you feed mineral,it only stays active for 24h.. The difference in ph in your run off is because the elevated ppm.the mineral left in the pot from previous feeds binds with the acid in your new feeding and the ph rises..the reading you get from your run off is not your soil ph but it gives you a good indication for your next feed or watering.. I never feed 2 times in a row and only when my pots are light when I pick them up Ooh and sorry for my crapy English 😊 I’m from Belgium
