Kosherkush, what kind of feeding do you use, that changes your water ph so strongly? Do you feed old plants?

I been contacting the owners of the grow store i been told that this soil compost mix that i have is buffering and i shouldnt balance my ph at all or i`ll freak out the plant, unless i feed her water only cause our base water ph here is 8.7 and thats really high.

so now i dunno if i had ph fluctuation or not GODAMN you soil!

Man - That water is high PH! Maybe this could be your problem - or perhaps part of it - dodgy water!?

We've been wracking our brains why you're having such a nightmare with this soil.
I know supplies are extremely limited in your area and getting premium soil (or coco) is a no-no

Just thinking outside of the box - have you considered doing a hydro grow (like DWC) and getting bottled water. I know it may be a different ball game with nutes (and getting the nutes to start may be tricky) - but long term could be an option.

I understand the frustration - even with premium soil i used go nuts trying to get it right (early days mistakes)

Ohhh do I hear you! my " you don't need to wrry 'bout no stinkin' PH" organic grow..........50% sucked! I killed half my plants before I admitted I had a ph problem! when i start mixing for my spring grow outdoors, I'll be damn sure to check PH before I ever put anything in the soil!
