Does anyone know if Hindu Kush is supposed to have red stems? She is a clone and she looks healthy but i keep hearing red stems are a sign of nutrient deficiency.....

what kind of soil are you using?

sometimes clones get red stems but its nothing to worry about... if your using MG siol, iw ouldnt use any ferts, or this could be the problem...over nuting.

i'll check it again but i think my soil ph is 6.3 or 6.4.... if it turns out to be too low can i just water with tap water(which i hear is notorious for being closer to alkaline than acid, something like 7.0) to balance my soil ph?
