lower the ph of ur water to 6.7 with the next watering(but let it dry out, ur going to create a second problem of over watering) and after that watering, let it dry, then go down to 6.2 and make sure every water u give it is exactly at 6.2 +- .1 which means, only 6.1, 6.2, 6.3..... not.. 6.0 or 6.4
Good advice, that's how i do it!!:leaf:
Ok, i see where youre coming from. I never mentioned watering with 6.7 water. I drop my water to about 5.8-6.0, before i give it to the girls.When i add this water to the plant, the PH reads at exactly6.5 in the soil.
Actually i would have to argue that it is possible to overwater a flowering plant. Like i said earlier, i'm a newbie still in a sense, but i experienced overwatering early in flowering on some of my plants.
This could have been due to undeveloped root structure, like you said, but when i dried it out, watered on a schedule, and got everything back on track, they came back good.
I was just sharing my personal experience with what happened to me.
But, i still agree he needs a better PH tester.

Question? What do you keep the PH of your soil,run-off and feeding water?
I only have what is posted to go by. I keep the PH of my soil as close to 6.5 as I can. I use the run-off PH and PPMS as a guide to let me know where my PH and PPMS are in the soil. I always feed at 6.3----plain water/RO/TAP---my flushings are done at 6.3 as well.
