SOIL Ph management

[Rusik420]

If i watering my plant with ph 6.5
but the drainage ph is 6.0
should i water it with ph 7.0
or keep going with 6.5
and the drainage doesn’t matter?

I would start worrying if it dropped below 5.5pH or above 8.

I work with soil
I water with 6.5
And the drainage is 6.0

Is
Saw that they have a better pk absorbing at 6.5
So the question is
Should i keep watering with 6.5
Or go up to 6.8/7
So the drainage will be 6.5..


I know they will be healthy just the way it is but i trying to get a biger yields..

In soil minor adjustments to pH shouldn't be needed. The soil microbes set the pH unless you're out of microbes.

I'd continue the same unless you see a problem until a couple of weeks after flipping then I'd raise it up to 7 in flower.

While we as growers can up the dry yield through various techniques probably the most important is to find the right genetics. That's going to have more impact on your dry yields than anything else.

Moving from a soil grow indoors under lights to a hydro grow indoors under lights will also increase yield, substantially. Coco Is considered a hydro grow and probably the cheapest of all to setup.

Checking SOIL runoff is a waste of time and causes unnecessary over-loving problems.

Water @ pH 6.4 to 6.7 with only enough so the pot reabsorbs any water that makes it to the saucer within a few minutes or you're just washing your nutrients away.
