ph question...

watered plants this morning. I checked the ph of the soil 6.8-7. Then I checked the ph of the run off. 5.5. Am I ok at these levels? Thanks ahead of time for all you teachers out there...

yes you are if the water going is is 6.8-7 then your good. the run off is still good your leaving ph numbers in your soil so it is good.

IMO 6.8-7 is too high for soil bring it down to 6.5

If your soil PH is where you want it,-6.5 to 6.7 like Deejay says, I wouldn't worry about what the runoff is.
Once it leaves the pot, the plants don't know what it is, right?

so next question. should i adjust ph in the water and rewater now since i just watered today, or should i wait until next water/feed

Wait till the next watering.

Theres one trick I always use... Look at them. Do they look happy?

I have always grown out doors, and looking at them was how i always judged. The indoor thing is brand new to me. The whole ppm's, ph, co2, humidity, FN BUGS, and things make me feel like im in kindergarten Just trying to make sure things dont become a problem... thanks to all on this site who help infants like me..... thanks again. I think they look happy.

Scoop some soil out from your pot and put it in a container, then add half a cup of vinegar in it. If the mixture fizzes, it means your soil is alkaline. If it shows no reaction, add half a cup of water in freshly scooped soil. Then mix some baking soda in it and see if the mixture fizzes. If it does, it means your soil is highly acidic. If it doesn't have any reaction, your soil is at a balanced ph.
