Well let’s try to rule it out. How close are your lights? Have you tested your soils ph? When was the last time you watered? @JD

My pH pen batteries died on me, so I’m thinking that they have been giving me a bad reading? @Noctis420

I have purchased new batteries, going to calibrate it and hopefully get things back on track, my friend.

Seems like light isn’t the issue. How often do you water? Ppm depends on how old your plant is and if you’re soil already had nutrients in it. What did the PH end up being? You need to water the plant and test the runoff with a ph pen. @JD

I water when the moisture meter reads dry and/or finger dry test. It’s usually every 2-3 days with 20% runoff. Last night, just plain H2O, using a pH Pen, pH going in was 6.8, and the pH of the runoff was 5.7. PPM was 69°F/1127, with TDS/EC Pen. Fox Farm Happy Frog soil, a few drops of FF Tiger Bloom every other watering. Seedling, March 27th of this year to now.
Thanks.

Hey it looks like you’re ph is a bit on the low side.
Growers using soil as their medium should adjust their pH to a range of 6 to 6.8. For a soilless garden, pH should sit between 5.5 to 6.5.

So should I water it at a higher pH to get the runoff pH higher, next watering time?
Thanks.

Correct. If it was me I would probably water with a ph of probably of 7.2 or 7.4 since you have been watering with 6.8 that way you don’t overshoot your ph and get it to high. It can certainly be a pain to get it up and down. Just test the runoff each watering until you get the desired ph.

Nutrient lock out due to ph being off? @JD
If you corrected the ph just watch your new growth it should be nice and healthy. Old damaged leaves won’t ever heal. @JD
