PH issues with soil??

[drew225]

I recently bought a PH/Moisture meter (it does a few other neat things too) as to make sure my PH levels don't get out of hand. First off im sorry, I did read the sticky on PH but didn't retain too much info. I measured the PH (assuming I did it correctly, it said to measure the soil a few inches down) and most of the plants are right around 5-6. Should I be concerned or just let it continue the course? From most everything ive seen it should be right around 6.5. Anything suggestions on what to add or subtract? Or am I just being too worried as a first time grower? Sometimes I feel like i've got 10 extra kids with as much as I worry about these plants. :stoned:

I'm not PHing, but from everything i've read, you want between 6 and 7 - so yeah, if your concerned about your PH levels, i'd add - Honestly I'm doing mine by eye, if I don't seem to be getting the growth I should quick enough, I'll get a meter, or if I'm yellowing, I'll get a meter

If they look good, and they're growing good.... let em go.

They all appear to be growing really nice, green, bushy and healthy except my clones which have some browning/yellowing of the leaves. Im going to post pics later
