Got a shopping list of nutes I should have on hand?

Also, is my logic below right....


Right now my water PH is 8.4 and my soil PH is probably somewhere in the low 5 range. The combination of the two is resulting in run off water of 6.8.

As I add more water at 8.4 it will leave some of its alkali properties in the soil, resulting in a higher PH of the soil. The higher soil PH will result in a higher runoff PH.


As this happens, should I be lowering the PH of my water so that I continue to get 6.8 on the runoff?

First time, having problems Here is my situation: Closet setup, am using a HID florescent ballast for the growth phase then will switch to a HPS bulb for flowering. I have been running the florescent setup 24/7 for a little more than a month now. Plants are beginning to reach a foot tall. Started the seeds directly in standard "kegger" red cups which i cut holes in the bottom for drainage. I will be transplanting to a 6" pot once the plants start to show gender. (will also switch to HPS 12/12 at this point) Rating: 5
