Major pH Issues, I understand what's wrong I just can't fix it.

Hello CC~ This is not gonna be a big help but I just want you to know what you might already know.
I'm in US and I use supersoil.. This supersoil company claims that their soil is PH balanced (5.5 ~ 6.5). I've used 7.0 ph'ed water from the beginning and I never had any problem so far. My TAP water's ph reading is 9+ as I said..
I used 6.5 ph'ed/filtered water last week and some of my plant showed a sign of nutrient deficiency(and possible nute burn, not sure). One of my plant was 6 weeks into flowering so I had to flush anyway. I flushed it today.
I don't trust my PH meter 100% so I have a pool PH liquid test kit as backup. I use PH liquid test kit to make sure that my PH meter reading is correct. I'm gonna buy PH solution to calibrate my PH meter next time. I guess I am just lucky with this soil.. I never ph'ed water that have drained from a pot.
That's all I can say. :thumbsup:

space.bar.broken.again...
Not.specifically.trans..We.have.possible.places.in .Anola,Tyndall,Gimli,Rosser(bytheairport),oakbank, dugald,and,cookscreek..A.place.isn't.an.issue.soil .conditions.andgeneral.info.on,growing.in.this.cli mate/area.are..I.need.something.to.start.with.and.alter .it.from.there..

Plants.are.flushed.and.happier..Buds.filling.out.a lot.better.bu.still.a.little.behind..Transplanted. new.plants.into.flushed.soil.pH.at.6..Don't.screw. with.what.works;)

WE GOT STINKY!! WE GOT STINKY!!!!! :D :thumbsup:

Chrissy i couldnt help u out im not an outdoor grower.But with this climate i would wait till june 1 to plant but go talk to a garden guy at revy or somewhere they would be able to help u out more.But i would plant a shit load of clones because alot of them might not make it due to animals eating them.Peace

Chrissy grow hydro ive done both and hydro is alot easier and less work.Plus u get bigger yeilds.

To.go.hydro.I.would.have.to.see.a.se.up.in.real.li fe.and.have.someone.walk.me.through.their.garden.. It's.just.the.way.I.learn..Chev.a.the.hydro.shop.k nows.his.shit.so.I'll.be.stopping.in.on.him.a.the. shop.with.a.joint.and.coffee.to.chat..

Its not really that hard chrissy get a flood and drain table get a pump and timer flood the table 3-4 times a day and thats it.I bought all my hydro stuff at that hydro store they have the same 4x8 flood and drain table that i use set up in the hydro store.

Chrissy I know exactly what you mean. I am EXACTLY that way as well....just sort of telling me how to do things doesn't cut it in my book. For one thing I always have 100 questions about the part that was left out of the instructions. And I always manage to think up some thing to do that wasn't mentioned etc.....It takes me about 3 tries to get anything new done.
But you know what they say.....that's the teacher not the student. ;) :jointsmile:

Buds.are.filling.out.very.nicely.now.I'm.so.glad.I .got.everything.back.on.track.in.time..
