What are you growing in; is this a soil-less/hydroponic grow or soil?

I grow my cannabis in soil, and I never alter the pH of my fertigation water. Sometimes I check the run-off, just to ensure that it is alright. Tomatoes I am growing in coco coir, only amendments being worm castings, dolomite lime and liquid fertilizers but nothing else to adjust pH.
Certainly it depends on your medium and your methods, but it might not matter all that much.

flush them ASAP with ph'd water if they are showing symptoms of ph being off, but if they are normal, jsut check the ph and wait till feed

If ya got the time, I'd flush 'em, just to be safe. Plants always like a nice clean medium, so, it'd still be an improvement, even if the PH happened to okay. :)

Don't feel too bad, when I was young like 14 and just started smoking, I used to get so baked and forget to breathe!

Seeing as you really don't know what the pH of the soil is, I'd wait till the next watering and test runoff. Then flush if needed. Then again, flushes don't always help either. My pH is at 7.2 (soil) and i'm well into flowering. Flushed the other day with water pH'd to 6.5 and my soil pH didn't budge. I will definately buffer my soil next time around to help keep it stable.

I am a total newb, so i'd probably wait for better advice, although mine makes sense to me. lol Good luck.
