In my opinion you’re going in too low. Even though you’re trying to drop ph in your medium, you need to apply in an acceptable range.

Gday @dbrn32. Things are cruising here however the ph won’t budge just yet. Had a bit of a growth spurt too. Which is comforting to see considering the ph. Don’t know much bout coco, but I know hydro wouldn’t like me running at 6.9.
Since last being in contact this is all watering/nutes Number 1 and Number 2 have had.
17/9
2.5LT NUTES @ 5.8PH AND 1150PPM
2 DAYS LATER
19/7
10LT OF WATER @ 5.7PH
NUMBER 1 HAD A RUNOFF WITH 7.2PH AND 548 PPM IN THE LAST LITRE OF RUNOFF.
NUMBER 2 HAD A RUNOFF WITH 6.9PH AND 560 PPM.
I’ve noticed RH is starting to dictate how often I can flush. 80% during flowering is a bit much. I do have a pedastool fan I’ve brought into play with this going on. So a lot of extra air movement. Just gotta be patient and take my opportunities to flush as they present themselves…I think.

The growth spurt is likely indication that tightening up ph is helping. I’m beginning to think that maybe your coco wasn’t rinsed well enough before you started.

To be honest with you. I did not rinse the coco. You are right. Sounds like I created a bit of a problem by not doing so. Just keep doing what I’m doing now? Silly me. @dbrn32

All looking good considering I’m battling a ph issue caused by me not rinsing the coco before use. Getting more towards 7 than the 5.8 I’m searching for. 10 lt waterings at a time to try and help.

I’ve left home tonight expecting to be back before daylight. Things have changed and i wont be home till the afternoon… PROBLEM IS… THE TENT HAS BEEN LEFT MOSTLY OPEN DUE TO EXCESSIVE HUMIDITY AND I WONT BE HOME IN TIME TO STOP THE DAYLIGHT GETTING ON MY 5TH WEEK FLOWERING PLANTS… THEY ARE GOING TO GET AM EXTRA 5 HOURS DAYLIGHT…
@dbrn32 this grow I’ve begun adding 30gm of phosphorus a fortnight. Plus begun using a potassium booster from 5th week of flowering. Was a definite fattening of sorts with 1st application of potassium.
Have finally gotten to use new drip tray I built for my SOG next grow…she’s water tight.

They look nice! Glad you are seeing results, I would just make sure you’re not hitting them with too much too early.

These 2 are 7vweeks 2 days into flower. Have 5.6 and 5.7ph runoff of 1500ppm. That’s about what’s going in.

They look plump! You can probably start backing off of your nutes.
