New Grower New auto grower here

Thanks
check the pH of the solution what comes out the bottom of your pot. It can't do harm to do that and if it's out of range you'll know ;)
it’s kind strange I bought one of them soil test ph meters it’s reading 7.0 when I stick it
In the soil of the sour kush but the rest
Of the plants read 6.5,they all get the same water and nutes and are all in the
Same soil,I’ll test the run off water next time I fed them

Those meter are notorious for being inaccurate, but even then you see a difference of pH. I would measure the runoff and check that with a pH pen. If your pH is still 7 then I would feed it sepperate nutrients which is pH'd to 5.8. Flush with it until the runoff reaches 6.2. After keep an eye on it measuring with your ground probe. If you see it rising again you know to feed it with lower pH'd nutrients...
 
Cool I’ll try that

ruff stoner calculation -> runoff ph x 2 minus ingoing ph = soil ph...more or less :rolleyes2: :thumbsup: ppp

This how my grow is going
I started this grow July 17th with the sour kush as you can see it’s a monster

gorilla glues July 27th I planted sour kush gorilla clues same time took them 10 days to open

smaller plants are a blue berry August 8th
Cream August 15th I’m running 18-6 on the lights
One of the gorilla glue is almost as tall as the sour kush the other one is still pretty small,all bigger plants are in 3 gallon pots,
Going to put the small plant in a 3 gallon pot tomorrow

not to bad for my first auto grow
