ph 4 or 5 is too acidic, bring it up to mid 6's
i am feeding her a ph of 5 to get my run off mid 6. Is this not right?? someone told me to remove the fan leaves to free up light and to feed her every other day. she only takes in around 1/4 gal of fluid and the rest runs off. I thank you for your insite and advice
You shouldnt listen to that person anymore. You will burn that girl up if you feed her every other day. From the looks of that small pic, looks pretty damn normal to me man. The plant will start turning yellow in flower. If you look at your bloom nutes, you will see very low N. The plant is using the N in the leaves and thats why they are yellowing. By the time i finish flowering, I prefer to have almost all yellow leaves. I personally always use 6.5ish ingoing ph in FFOF soil. Just my 2 cents. Good luckQuote:

Too much, too little? Using FF big bloom for nut. So you say send in a ph of 6 and don't over thing run off? Friend had me trim the fan leaves if they were not new groth and keeping light from the cola centers. Light is 2 1/2 to 3 feet above her and room stays at 74 to 80 degrees. I can't thank you guys enough. Plant and I have a unique history and I need to keep her going
