Water PH

Hey Guys,

I have stunted seedlings and just checked my runoff and it was 6.7-6.8. My water was PHED to 6.5 but I guess the light warrior soil brought it up a bit. Should I PH my water to 6.3 so when its in the soil it is 6.5?

no sounds all good............

Thanks Del, I'll just leave it for now then. So does the run off not matter as much as the water going in as far as PH? Sorry still a noob.

run off can be important but your ph is well within the range that the plant likes............ph problems with soil and compost a more likely when in mid flower......i believe soil/compost gets more acidic with time.

and dont be sorry for being a noob..........we all were once mate

Thanks. It is my 5th grow but I am still learning a lot. Never really PHed before so I want to make sure everything is perfect this grow to get the best quality. They are on week 3 since popping through and they are still only on 1st set of true leaves so I thought it was either PH or mites. I thought I saw larvae under scope so I put a no pest strip in for a few hours and then took it out. today they look greener and seems like some new growth so maybe it was that as well. Thanks again
