The PH battle
I am almost nearing the end of my first grow, last night I couldnā??t sleep thinking do I want to do this again? Well NO, but no one should expect perfection so Ill give it another try.
. . I have battled low PH from day 1. If I set it at 6.5, in 24 hours its under 6.0. Double check by using the meter and the drops it plunges. So I used the entire bottle of PH UP in just over 9 weeks and I opted 3 nights ago to use Baking Soda to raise the PH. Using warm water and baking soda, got a PH at 6.54 and didnā??t touch it as I predicted it would be 6.0 next time I check.
Yesterday I carry out the same routine as usual, but for the first time ever my PH has gone up to nearly 7. Yeah I had to triple check to make sure, but for the first time ever my PH went up?
I think the baking soda is the obvious cause, and I think as water evaporated it became stronger.
One more question, I got neem oil to tame some powdery mildew itā??s the oil extract but how often do I spray the plants with it?luvfriday Reviewed by luvfriday on .
