Hi
@StealthAlien
Tap water is usually around 7-7.8 PH. fertilizers tend to lower the PH, you can apply the nutes normally. good luck mate 👍

At this point prob ok do you know what PH your water runs? Mine runs between 7.2-6.8 so I kind of know how much PH down to add (almost said up constantly doing that). You will need a way to test soon though even the dyes would do well enough.

Time to Start Flushing
Hey guys, I'm writing because I have one mature plant and I'm doubting if it's a good time to start flushing it. Trichomes are starting to look cloudy, but still many are transparent. Do you think it's time to cut off nutrients ? Thanks and happy growing !

When using ffof soil that says it has a pH of 6.3-6.8 is it still necessary to pH my water when using nutrients?
This may be a stupid question but w ffof it says the soil is already pH 6.3-6.8 so my question is do I still need to pH my water when using or not using nutrients or is there no need to because the soil is already the correct pH?

Advanced nutrients in soil runoff
Advanced nutrients in soil. Hey, so I'm using advice nutrients line (sensi) in biobizz soil (light and all mix 50/50.) Anyway my runoff is always 5.8PH I'm guessing this is due to the PH perfect technology. My soil is buffered to 6.2PH and I always PH up to 6.3/6.4...

Ec rising in hydro (6th week flowering - closed circuit tank and drip)
At the end of every day, EC rises by 0.2 at least. Starts at 1.60 and then in their evening it goes up to 1.83 ! So I have to add water (2L) in order to go down. Does it have to do with the fact they had overfeeding, toxicities and deficiency so they don't feed well ?
