No insult intended! Just trying to be the voice of reason here. As for mistakes I still make plenty of them! Just try not too overreact as much nowadays.
Ok and thanks again.
Since you have six weeks invested in one good looking plant. I would hate to see you screw it up. Just kinda scared me when you were talking about changing the water source.
I wouldnt change anything. Dont worry about the 7.0 ph especially if you are starting to flower. I dont see anything but a healthy thriving plant. Keep on rocking it out. Your soil has a ph buffer and your ph meter prob has a (+/-) .2 variable. I wouldnt worry bro. Keep on growing on.
P.S. you can water in at 6.5 and it will slowing swing your ph down a notch.

Well said. I’d let it roll on just like its been going. Plant looks to good to make big changes.
Just curious, what are you using to check your PH? ![]()

Looking wonderful growmie! ![]()
@PDave420. Is this the rapid test meter you are referring to. If so they read everything it 7.0, and are not worth a crap for reading ph. They are somewhat OK for just reading the soil moisture.
What the members are suggesting is a ph meter like this one. You use it to read the ph in the water, liquid nutrient solution, and the run off. I suspect that your soil is closer to 6.5 than you think. This why some of us suggested no changes until you have better input information.
JMHO those testers are not the ones I would use. You need a decent Ph tester. I would suggest an apera or a blue lab. Happy growing ![]()

Thanks for the help.
Ill get a different ph tester.
While were talking about testers what other test equipment will i need. I only have a crappy ph tester I guess. lol
My next grow will be in my 4x4 tent.
A good EC or PPM meter is good to have. I have not used one,but AC Infinity now has a combo EC/ph meter for $150. It comes with a case and calibration fluids. I have nothing but good things to say about their products that I have.
You are lucky in that you need the meter to see what you are doing right.
After getting getting a ph and EC meter test your well water, get back with us on the ph and EC numbers.
Good morning.
Ok ill let you know what i get when i have the new test equip.
