What is the recommended pH level of my water used for watering my plants.
The same as the PH of the soil, which CAN be anywhere twix 5.5 - 7.0
There are so many 'depends on..' though, like soil type,nuts type,strain type yadda yada
6.5 to 6.7 if all other info is unknown.
appreciate it.
Measure your ph in and then your ph out. Mine without nutes is ph 7, neutral. Ph out is sometimes 5.7. With nutes my water in around 6.7 to 6.5. A lot of differences. I think these girls can take it. I think if you are ph 7 or lower going in you are ok. Are you in soil. I am.

A chart for your reference. Shows both hydro and soil.

Strain type and soil type are not important; while different strains do appreciate different nute levels, pH is fixed, and any deviations need to fall within this range.
Thanks Stinky for that! I have a lower ph happening here out of my soils. I go in with a watering of ph 7 to 6.8 and run off with 5.7 or so.
So I need to adjust to a water runoff of ph6.5 to 6.8?
soil wasn't mentioned in the first note, so ya. 6.5 to 6.7 is what I said. *boggle*
weed does just fine down to 5.5 in hydro but that pushing.
Sorry but the info is NOT wrong.
I am using a commercial soil with a ph of 5.5 to 6.5 . 3 different ferts on 6 different plants,I should really be checking the ph run off on all these plants. I only did several of them. The other clones I have are all getting Fox Farms Bloom Booster. Is that any good?
Stinkyattic : Should I adjust my water ph to alkaline ? How much? Thanks
Stinkyattic: Should that be water out or in? Sorry same question.Quote:
