Indoor Growing Scrog

A few more days of development. I tweaked my back at work Monday and haven't been able to lean into the tent for maintenance. I did manage to get some of the leaves off the tallest shoots today. Pistils are bunching up which I think means "pom poms" and the end of stretch are close.

Nobody told me, wonder if I'm alone: Cannot adjust pH with Up or Down without first diluting it in a glass of water.
If put directly into nutrient solution, calcium, and something else, precipitate out. This solves one of my head scratching
mysteries: some plants show obvious signs of calcium deficiency, but shouldn't, because FloraNova nutes supply calcium.
Now I know why, and I've fixed it.

Curious about the ratio, I use about 6ml of ph down for 4gal of feed. About how much water should I dilute it in?
 
Here's where I stumbled across this ...


Interesting! If I need to raise my pH i just add water (my tap water is around pH 7.0). Or I mix up a gallon of nutes and add some to the res to raise pH. Usually I would only have to raise the pH if I added too much pH-lower (I'm feeding with MegaCrop 1-part, and some extra P & K in flower).

I didn't know this. But I do mix my nutes in a certain order because of the same thing. Silica is always first and gets a good 20-30 minutes to dissolve. Next is cal-mag and it gets 10-15 minutes. Then I add my flora nova no time here just a good stir. Finally additives in whatever order but each one gets stirred in good before the next.

God I love not having to check the ph growing organically.
