true but i think the others are right when they say it is due to wrong ph level. Im going to test my runoff next time i water and let you guys know what it is

yea I have a similar problem when I use liquid karma in my DWC, it coats my pH test strips with a layer of black o__o
so i finally got a clean ph reading and the runoff was wayyyyyy to high on the chart looks like 7.5-8.0. The water i put in was ph 6.5 so im going to lower it to 6.0 and then see what the runoff is then. Is 6.0 to low to start or should it be good? The plants are growing but there isnt any fan leaves except for at the top. Will the lower ph make the plants start to mature better. Im going on my 4th week in veg and they look like they are 2 weeks old.
