pH problem with soil grow
I woke up this morning and as normal went to check on my plants. This morning I noticed one of the plants was begining to get yellow in the middle of the top leaves... it did not look like nute burn, water issues, etc etc, so I decided to check the water run off for the first time (I know, I know, I now see the importance of keeping up with ALL pH levels!, including run off) my strips only go down to 5.0 and the color was lighter then that!!!! So of corse I'm fruitin' now, I decide it was time for me to try my first flush.... I used tap ph'd water to about 7.5 and flushed it 4 times, the ph remained 5.0<<.... until the last flush, it went up to 5.5. Now here's my question, I know I'm stressin the beejezus outta my plant by the flushes, should I give her a rest and continue to flush next watering or should I keep flushing until I get ph to 6.5-6.8? Thanks guys/gals.
