water runoff?

pH of runoff is not the same as soil pH. Soil is a complex matrix of anions and cations and has an exchange capacity for each. Since you are using a seed starting mix, the soil is not very saturated with nutrient salts. RO systems are not perfect and usually still contain 10-20 ppm of various mineral salts. As your water passes through the soil, the soil may grab a few ions from the water. Since the source water is so low in mineral content a small change can cause a large pH shift in the run off. If you are concerned with the seed starting mix you should take a fresh sample from the bag and perform a slurry test for better insight. In the meantime add a small amount of tap water to your RO and adjust pH to spec. Good luck!

There u go. Glad u didnt fuck with it
Is the top right a duck?
actually two of them ducked on me..The strain was created from a "Mosca Seeds Blue Moon" male crossed with Seedsman White Widow feminized. First time i am seeing Ducks Feet.. Things that make you go HUH! I made the seeds 2 years ago.

Did you come up wit that mix yourself?
AMERICAN SEED COMPANY..JUST SOMETHING TO START SOME OUTDOOR PLANTS IN.. I decided to check runoff for shits and giggles..They go outdoors just about the time they get close to root bound..I'm gonna fill them up to the top tonight and soak them good.. HOW did anyone not learn how to grow a weed is beyond me.....When i was in the 2nd grade my teacher must of been a stoner. we grew all kinds of stuff staring in September till the end of the school year.

Wow u brought out recessive genes. Keep it and pollinate it if u have time they may turn purple.
Ive used the miracle grow seed started or mixed local hot potting soil 5050 with coco its all good.
