Plant issues.

Hey guys. PH may have been a bit off a couple waterings ago, so i flushed last watering (three days ago). But these problems also started when i put quite a bit of "dish soap" within the STS spray ive made. Wondering whether too much soap (whether it was soap or detergent i dont know) can cause such issues to plants. Buddy says it seems like the soap is staying on top the plants overnight when the lights come back on. There was already a couple miiinor deficiencies on the left plant, but this sort of came out of nowhere. Screenshot_20210316-143954.png

not enough info. Any spray treatment can cause issues with a plant. That is why you should always spray a section of 1 plant area for testing before.
STS = silver thiosulfate. I stated that i made STS and added a shit ton of dish soap. Cant really get more specific unless i start breaking down the recipe/amounts used of silver nitrate and sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate. STS by itself can cause burns. I went a bit on the more diluted side than what the recipe calls for though to avoid that, but i probably put waaay too much dishsoap, which ive been reading can cause the symptoms im displaying.

Dish soap has high alkalinity, depending on brand, unless it's labeled mild, it's probably PH of around 9.

Cannabis likes acidic PH of below 7.

The recommending of using it is only a drop, not "a lot."
There we go. Thank you. Recipe called for 4 to 6 drops. I tried that, yet the solution was still beading/rolling off. So i put quite a bit more XD Remade it without soap, considering a few people have told me its not necessary in the first place. Well see.
