Quik fix for BAD PH issues in soil???

I am having some serious PH issues with this grow. Im only about 20 days in and it must be really high because they are in total lockout. My question is whats the fastest way to fix this? I have never had this issue in the past. Im running to get some PH up and down today. How long does it usually take to recover from nute lockout? I had an idea that may or may not speed up the process. What if I washed most of the soil out of the roots and but them in a bubbler with PH'd water for a few days? Then started fresh with new soil. Any imput is welcome.

It is not a good idea to switch them from one growing style to another and back again, sticking with your soil and working through the problem is your best bet.

What soil are you using?

Hey bro


First test your soil for its pH level. Water with 6.8 pH water and wait until water runs off under the pot's holes. Test that water that ran out the holes. That would be an idea of your soil's pH. Just flush the soil with the correct pH water(6. without nutrients for a few waterings and it should be better.

Slow down and make sure this is really lock-out before you kill them trying to rinse the roots. Post up a few pictures and tell us what's going on.

thanks for the replys/help
