I use tap water and the ph fluctuates. I boil the water and let it cool before I mix nutrients so I’m not sure if that is why it changes but it happens. So if I were you I would invest in a digital ph tester. I use mine to check it every feeding during multiple steps but I’m growing in coco and not soil.
Youve got those little plants in a LOT of dirt.... how often are you watering?
Agreed. Its just that those pots are huge and the plants seem to have basically no branches just one little kola.... Probably only need water every 2 weeks...
Every other day,this room is only 5'3" height and temps run about 65&78 so my soil dries pretty quick especially after adding the 2000.
Believe what the pros say about pH.
im betting you are way overwatiering. Are you lifting the buckets and making sure they are very light (like when you filled them with fresh dirt)
Don't listen to anyone that tells you not to worry about ph. They are either fucking with you, or too stupid to be giving advice.
Agreed. In living soil the microbes increase the soil ph as the eat and poop. Adding high ph water does not help anything. Granted im not worried about getting to 6.531 ph but i like to see at least a 6.1-6.9 range.
