Looking For Knowledge

Hey guys!

Just wanna start off by saying I haven't grown pot before and this is my first time. I have a couple questions as I couldn't find an exact answer while I was researching. I want to just be prepared and fairly knowledgeable of what I'm doing.

Current Grow -
60% Peat Moss 40% Perlite
Advanced Nutrients PH Perfect M, G, B

Right now, they have their first set of leaves that are growing. I do have a 32 x 32 x 56 inch grow tent on the way as well as getting a TS 600W LED light.

What I'm wondering is, if my medium ends up out of pH down the road. What is the best way to correct this? Shall I add pH up/down to water on the next feed? Should I flush and restart with nutrients? If so how do you go about it? I am referring to earlier stages before last week of flowering. I want to just be prepared and know what steps I need to take and how.

I do pH test my nutrients before feeding my plants, how ever I also understand some times shit happens.

Upgrades coming -
- Carbon filter system
- Cloning System
- DWC/ Aeroponic system

Thank you in advanced. I am just trying to learn!

ph is divided in soil/soiless mix....personally imo real soil you dont need to ph but soiless mix you do...i grow in a soiless peat based mix and i always ph to 6.5 which is the sweet spot...so as long as you ph to this youll be golden.dont worry about your medium ph going out ,it shouldnt do unless your giving way too much nutes in whch case youll have a million other problems...ive never in decades of growing tested soil ph.just stick to half strength nutes until you get the hang of it...all plants are different so its a good idea to grow the same strain for a bit to get used to everything.be careful with dwc if your new to growing ,its not as easy as it sounds and 1 fuck up and everything is dead.if you think youve over nuted flush with 3 times the pot size with half strength nutes phd correctly.hope this helps matey!
