    What are you using to test your water ph?
    Does your tapwater smell like chlorine?
    Ditch the Superthrive crap.

    7.0 ph should be fine...especially once the soil buffers wear-off. if your tapwater smells like chlorine though, letting it sit-out overnight should help outgas the chlorine, unless your locals use solid forms of chlorine that won't outgas. (reverse osmosis filtering helps though, if that's the case)

    Optimal for peat-based soils is between 6.3 and 6.8. The buffers in your soil should keep you ok though.

    Specifically...what kind of ph lower? (phDown?)

    Find a suitable 2 or 3 part nutrient system for the ladies. Makes growing cannabis a breeze. Check out Fox Farms, Canna, Botanicare....each also have an online weekly feeding schedule. So easy a caveman can do it. :thumbsup:
