If your soil is either acid or alkaline, would you need to adjust your water/nute pH accordingly? For instance, my girls are suffering from lockout due to soil being slightly alkaline. In order for my runoff to come out at a pH of 6.5, I had to flush with plain water pH'd at 5.1. My question is, should I always feed/water with a pH of 5.1(+/- depending to run off)? Or do I continue to feed/water with a pH of 6.3-6.7? The goal is to have a soil runoff pH of 6.5 correct? I was feeding/watering with 6.5pH, but my run off was approx 7.1 pH.

Thanks.
