Light green yellow tint

So as I stated in a previous thread I was giving my plants about 11 PH on accident my pH strips were not working didn’t realize until I bought a new pH meter that being said I believe that’s why my plants started getting real light green yellow color I’ve been given them proper pH for two weeks and want to know if there’s anything else I can add to my water to help my plants bounce back from there Deficiency and get them nice and green again Using ro water With Cal mag now And the 707 roots organic soil that plans have been in for about two weeks

If you havent been giving anything with nitrogen, shoot some fert to em. Calmag doesnt have much N. Being they were exposed to so high ph they're likely in nute lockout. Check runoff ph. I aim for a 6 but I'm happy with 5.8-6.2. I set my well water to a 5.9 or 6 going in. Remember, after watering at an 11 for a while, your soil buffered to and absorbed that and when you add your balanced water the soil it buffers your water back to a higher ph. until the acidity neutralizes the alkalinity, itll do that.

Appreciate it I bought some ph perfect micro with N that I’m going to mix in with calmag at half strength probably end up getting something with more N it’s just weird because the top half of the plants are lighter green/ yellow and the bottom is in better shape.A worker at the grow shop said that it looks like the lights might be to close but the company recommendation for the light is what I’ve Ben setting the distance at 12”” roie680 led I backed it up to 18” to see if it helps

Your more than welcome. 18 inches is a good height. Getting ph down I think will solve a lot of issues., I dont go any lower with my kingsled I use for veg. I'm running a trio of fox farm nutes and I'm very pleased with the results. For ph control I use general hydroponics PH kit and it works flawlessly. Even came with a ph indicator liquid that I can check my meter against if I suspect any fishiness with it. I havent had to add any calmag to my solution since I started using it FF. On my next plain ph'd watering, I might toss in some to replenish the soil being shes budding hard n heavy.
