Aloha all...so I mentioned in one of my other threads, I'm growing in
OF and Pro-mix organic potting soil (75/25 ratio). For nutrients I'm using Roots Organic liquid Buddha grow for vegging and Buddha Bloom later for flowering.
So heres my dilemma...when I mix nutes, I start with ph water of about 6.0-6.5...the nutes drop my ph to about 4.0-4.5. (PPM is about 600)
I read you should let nutes sit for 24hrs so I did, and ph never changed...first batch got poured out because I was worried about the amount of ph up I had to add just to get the ph to even start going up. (Blue liquid kind)
Then since I never got any replies, I gave my girls a new batch of nutes without adjusting ph...because I seen more arguments for organic soil being able to adjust the ph where it needs it.
Now after only 1 serving of nutes, I see some very very slight coloring on one or two leaves that supposedly means ph fluctuation???...plus alot of the tips are browning ( very very tip)
Please, can help?...anyone???
