In a weird Situation!!

[TokeSmoker420]

Okay so im gonna try and make this short as possible.

I had plants that werent quite dried out, not ready to be watered. my gf watered them and to maker things worst with STRAIGHT TAP WATER THAT COMES OUT AT 8.5-9 PH!!!

i got really pissed. i re-watered with pH water at 6.5~. the run off tested around 7.5ph. whats my best option? i have no water stocked yet. the earliest i can flush with ph'd water is in 2days?

but then again i dont want to overwater and drown the roots. should i wait for it to dry out completely then flush with pH'd water? they take a while to dry like a week.


help plz!!

The pH being off for a few days shouldn't cause any serious problems. It's really only an issue when the plants get the wrong pH for awhile. Growth will slow and you should expect some gnarled, deformed fresh growth, but it should be fine. Transplanting is the best sure-fire way to change soil pH. Otherwise, give them extra acid and/or more acidic ferts for awhile, watching the pH at least until it normalizes.

I wouldn't do anything out of your normal routine. The plant isn't going to fall over dead from one watering with tap.

It's a blip, nothing more. Quit stressing.

ye i think im stressing to much, its just i know theres alot of fucked up shit in my tap water so im trippin lol. the kush prolly aint helpin either.

so im guessing the best option is wait for them to dry out properly, then i should do nice large watering of ph'd water at lower 6's to kinda balance the ph??

i also have dolomite lime mixed with medium so i dont have to worry about it being too acidic.

Best option is to chill lol and enjoy the kush
If your worried you have an off ph why not just flush with some distilled or RO water from the grocery store. Add B1 and correct ph to help reduce plant shock. I add B1 to everything I do.
