5.7 is a good number for a hydro grow.. I always keep mine at 5.8... It's hard to say why its dropping,, Do you test your ph after you add your nutes? That's when it should be done... Anyway if your plants are doing OK then I say you are OK... PEACE

yeah i check after as well. the lower fan leaves arent so preety but she is doin good. i just dont want the growth to stunt, cause she looks like she hasnt grown much for the past week or two

5.7 - 6.2 is a very reasonable range for it to swing through. leave it alone.

do you use gh products by chance my ph gets gradually more acidic but never out of range as illegal said let it swing in the range besides youll just bang your head against a wall trying to keep it at one point as long as its below 6.5 and above 5.5 your golden
