Ca doesn’t become available till 5.9 so you may be below range for proper uptake unless the medium buffers up between waterings. I’m an organic soil guy, so I’d check with others that use your medium and salts @low @Growdoc

i fed yesterday and so far have been feed/water every other day.. now that shes getting hungry im going to start every day and monitor. so i went down and just gave her water with 5ml cal-mag at 5.95 ph.. would have bumped it up slighty if id have seen this a few minutes ago

PH up is cheap, you can use baking soda in a pinch, but gotta get that PH up to 6.3-6.7 . As @Budbrother said, your on the edge of them not uptaking some minerals. Then those build up and lockout others, much easier to keep it in line than to get it back when it goes out.

In the event I need to pH up I supplement tap water, mine is around 7.6-7.8 If it takes too much causing dilution I use pH up.
I use these, but I purchase in 1 gallon sizes and they last a long time, even when I’m steadily treating 110+ gallons a week.
I have done pH adjustments with household stuff as already suggested but it doesn’t seem to hold as long.
I like to hit the bases so I’ll hit anywhere between 5.8 and 6.2.. 5.8-6.1 veg and 5.9-6.2 in flower. If you are mixing by the bucket or less 6.0 is a good sweet spot.

she definitely liked the extra watering today. most vertical growth in a day for her so far.
so tomorrow ill carry on water/feed everyday.
that being said, i can get pretty busy, so im thinking about an auto watering system that i can use as needed, like if i wanna take a weekend to camp, etc… any good systems out there? pros cons? thanks

Many different types I use autopots, I like them others use them also, some like them lots some don’t, AC Infinity has a wicking system few use those also, will let others chime in on what they use, many types of self feeders or total Hydro.
