Is it common for my nutes to bring down the ph that much? Im on a budget and only have the usual ph up/down. Should about 2ml of PH up bring it to normal?

Its hard for us to judge if 2ml of phUP will do the trick, your reservoir size will greatly impact how much phUP you should use.

You mix your nutes with fresh water in 1 gallon jugs? You are talking about drops of phUP at that amount of water. I'd try 2 drops mix it well then test water again.

Im partially colorblind and cant afford a digital PH meter at the moment. My reds/oranges/yellows all look roughly the same. Is this PH too low? I cant tell.

hey man, ditto on the colour blindness, i have a problem with seeing red and greens properly, i use combur test kits, they use them in hospitals for urine sampler but my eyes can match up the shades from the strip to the ph guide. thinking maybe litmus paper would work better for you.
