    As ppl say... viniger or lemon juice but its not the best buffer as you have to adjust it all the time... my advice for your future, use Canna ph+, its the best buffer solution out there. Ive tryed GHE and others... choose canna

      Before I moved here I had perfect water in all senses and now where I'm at it's closer to 8 than 7. Before I moved I had no need for a pH meter so it got lost in the unorganized life I live. Now that I saw problems I got a new one and found the problem. Just waiting on some orders. If course ph up would come in before pH down. Such is life. But got er under control for the moment. Next month I'll throw a few hundred dollars at Amazon like usual. I have all I need but like new things. Always trying something new...

    After sitting 36 hours
    Vegging 4 aurora indica, waiting on seeds. Got eyes on a 4x8x8 tent.
    sp150x2 philz330 and Philz 100x2
    4 plants currently under 500w
    2 x opulent systems 4x4x80 tents and a 24x40x48 baby box.
    GH full line of nutes+calmag and my molasses sugar brown sugar liquid mix at 30ml per liter.
    Happy growing/consuming 🥴

      Thats bc vinigar and lemon juce dosent have a buffer like other PH +/- adjustment liq, it does its job but not for long. Thats what i mean by buffer. 1L of canna ph- is about 10-12$ i belive so dont miss out on the good stuff when its practicly free.

        Waiting on some real ph adjusters but lemon juice down to 6 then nute brings it down to 5.5. The pots are dry within 2 days

          Dont adjust the water before you add nuts.. the nuts will throw the ph abit of ballance. 5,5 is at low end, not suitble unless you are running hydro... tho 5,5-6,5 should be your range anyway. lemon will balance the ph for a short time bc its not a good buffer.. Try to keep in in that range, you might have to calibrate 1-2 times aday until u get a better buffer. My advice is as always canna ph-

            Ph 7+, now your girls have problems absorbing the nutes from the soil/solution.... below 5,5, its getting to accid and you have the same problem..

              They're getting a good flush very shortly this was yesterday. When I get a good pH down they're going into the tub and getting a good flush

              Im not all about giving crap to ppl... not at all but from the latest photo, they look abit overwatered unless you just have watered within the last hour... Flushing in this state will perhaps just give em more stress... maybe let em dry out abit first.
              Overwatering is something everyone does until you get more relaxed around your girls...
              Otherwise they have a really nice and healthy color as you will expect from a girl who is growing... Nice light color on new leafs and nice dark color on the rest of the fan leafs

              Btw, have you seen my grow? I see you apply LST, perhaps i can give you a few pointers on how to get a "tetris game" in your tent

                Pics below, turned the main led off to get better colour. Do you have a grow journal or posts of your grow on here? I'll always take advice, noone knows it all eh.

              Not to beat around the bush.. or beat up my bushes. I let them start to wilt before I water, along with a moisture meter that I stick in from time to time. I have to take em all out when I get back to town, gotta go get some things a town over. Show ya how their all tied down as well I'll post some pics here. Was just looking for opinions on temporary ph reducers while I wait for my orders. But feel free to post some pics. Show me what you're working with. TokerTom

              I realize I might come off as rude and I apologize, more aless just get defensive lol, but I try not to and when I do I realize afterwards 🤤 I'm here to help as much as I'm here to get it, I joined the forum a month or so ago but I joined the growing community 2012 and learned it all the hard way but have it dialed in to the point I want to try something new maybe DWC or full hydro just to challenge myself abit more, then I'll have some real questions to ask 😁🧘. High temps happy babies.
