Get some Raid, (strips) and clean-up any leaf litter in the pots. :thumbsup:

Not too sure about the use of phUp, but am curious how long it lasts in the soil. Did you use it previously with the mothers'? If so, it might still be raising the ph on ya. I would flush once (2:1 water:volume) with properly ph'd water, (6.3 to 6.7ish) and go from there. I try to never purposefully raise or lower the ph out-of-range. Sometimes necessary, but not recommended.

Good luck.
