Ok so I'm on day 48 of flowering using Promix with 50% perlite and Advanced Nutrients 3 part, and for the past 3 weeks my pH just keeps rising. So three weeks ago when I first notice the pH was rising I sent the water in a 6.3 and it came out at 7.3, then the next week I water with a pH of 5.9 and the runoff was 8, and yesterday I water them with a pH of 5.5 and the runoff was 9.2, could somebody let me know what's going on it would be most appreciated, thanks in advance.
 
Normally run off ph will change a bit and it means nothing. But with the spread you have it is alarming. I wonder... if youre using advanced nutrients ph perfect stuff the ph will change dramatically unless you use ro water...

Thanks for your response, but every drop of water I have given my ladies have been RO water.

Well the actual plants are not showing that there's a pH problem, and from what I'm understanding they do some type of shit to the nutrients to where they are available in a wide pH range, I called them to ask about it and they said don't worry my plants will be just fine, but I don't give a damn what they say I would like my pH to be lower, just for my own peace of mind.

ph is going to change as the medium dries, quit even worrying about it, most people cause more issues chasing their tail on stupid shit like that.

Yea I called advanced nutrients to ask them about it and he said that's normal I shouldn't have any problems, and its been 3 weeks with those high pH's but the plant haven't showed any problem so maybe he's right maybe he's wrong, I guess I'll find out.
