Took 6.5 hours to flush two plants so the other four I put two gallons each of filtered water with a ph of 8 in each plant. 1/4 gallon of runoff each (approx.) With a ph of 6 to 6.1. Does this sound harmful ? I’m hoping the buildup of organic nutes on the top will keep the ph of the moisture down in that top layer of dirt.

rjw71,

Your OK …you re in the 6.1 range now. Just let them dry out for two or three days.  
Then use only 1./4 strength to get back in the wing of things how’s that sound to you.?

Oh yeah. garrugan is a good friend of the community. He has soaked up all the knowledge provided and become a great grow support mentor. 🙂 I certainly appreciate his contributions here.
