Yet another ph question...

[GCase]

Justinsane. I fight PH all the time. And someday, I will hit the sweet spot.

If your plants are not showing signs of lock-out, stress, typical PH symptoms, then, I would not run a major flush.

Watch very closely for the above. Then flush. Next watering adjusted down PH. Check run-off then adjust down again slightly.

I say this because you mention new organic soil. The root zone may be fine with the critters working. And the photos are not as hyper-sensitive (time wise) as the autos becasue of their longer growing season and better genetics.

I have found that adjusting too quickly is not so good either.

Any pictures. If it looks good let her go for a bit.

Opinion only. Truly, only opinion from a PH fighter.

Yeah you're right actually. Sorry goauto. :hug: At least for lemon juice, that and vinegar bring your ph down. Baking soda will bring it up but you'd be safer just adding more tap water to raise it back up if needed. Otherwise use sparingly because I have heard that it can damage or kill the microherd in your root zone.

Not sure how stable household products are so I roll with specific ph up and down.

I feel you on playing it on the safe side, but the truth is, there's only so much we can do without pics, mate. Good luck.

I knew you had just made a mixup, bro. It's all good.

 

[Justinsane]

Yup, and even i with my low post count hit it on the nail...

And me as well uses tap water to bring ph up the few times i need to do that. But thanks for sharing squid. Always someone who will pick that correct info up.

Peace Justin

And i will have a meeting with myself if i will post any pictures or not. And i made up my mind that i will NOT flush my plants and just water them with 6.0-6.1 water during the next weeks and measure ph closely. And if i se any signs of bad luck then i will go ahead and flush them.

The meeting lasted 30 mins and i won it, here are some pictures, so tell me what you think i should do now
