so my ph has started dropping allot daily

im doing dwc and my roots look fine except my net cup is constricting some of the roots and slowly cutting in to them.
i dont know why that would make my ph drop but its the only thing i can think is causing the problem.
i wont be using small net cups again.

my question is am i better off chasing my ph for the last week or two before i pull or not

i add a photo from my last grow that did similar for example of what i cam seeing now as i cant get a lean shot of my roots inside the res

its not a small ph drop its going from 6 down to 5.3 with in 48 hours or a fresh res change. i am not seeing this problem with the other plant in flower that is in a bigger net cup

No root problems like slime or smell?

no everything is fine and clean

its odd because the only time i see drop is when its related to a root problem and i am not seeing any rot ect

i have noticed she has been slow growing VS the one next to her thats weeks younger. clones from the same mother
