ph ur water before you add it, and flush with a more basic solution till u get ur ph back up to mid to low 6's

its easier to lower ph than raise it

If I remember correctly, when I used the GH line-up and distilled, adding he nutes usually balanced the pH out all by itself. (Of course with time it fluctuated as plant took up nutes.)

So what's dropping it? It's not the Flora series so it must be either the "moab" or "calMg" (never used either) but I have used the GH series. Lower the dose of the one that is taking it down. You can add Silica also, it'll raise you pH.

Tap water? Bottles water? What is the startin ph of your water? And what do the bites drop it to? How strong are you feeding?

Yeah, this is why you need to start off with fewer nutrients than the bottles say.

And I think that you need to ease things up as you go. I do that when I go with Advanced Nutrients...even though I KNOW they work.

The pH Perfect lineup is something you might want to try. Don't want to knock your brand, but I think you might want to check something new out after you try to adjust things with the dosage.

If you don't like the results the second time around, you should really go with AN...

Yeah i hate fukn with PH levels.. your either too high or too low.. and im impatient adjusting it so it takes me longer caz i fuck it up.. patience is the key..
