My plants are in trouble. The pH was high in both so I added (w/out measuring) some pH down to them and now they're looking horrible. The fucked up evil looking one seems to be on it's last leg.
I tested each plant several times in different areas of the soil and I'm getting below 4 in some areas, around 7 in other areas and around 5.5 in the rest. I thought that I initially evenly poured the pH down water around each plant, but the meter read otherwise.
How do I properly fix the issue?
Please help..

Hello are you in coco or soil as you need to do a full flush to get ph right if in soil that will be a bit ifffy to do :thumbsup:
 
Put em into the bathtub and flush, flush, flush with properly pH'd water, I'd go with 20 gal per plant to get as much of the crap out and get soil to a stabilized pH, the a feed to run off with 1/2 strength nute mix to replace what got flushed out. Then wait and see how they respond......still might not save them but at least you tried.
 
There may not be a 'proper fix' for the evil one except for starting over.

Properly ph'd shower water?

I'm in soil. Can you explain to me the process and should I do the same with the other one that's in better shape?

What temp. should the water be? And should I also flush the much healthier one, too?

Hello you need to flush with the same temp water as the pot is about 3x volume of the pot of ph'd water. Then mix up your nutes and phd water to run off and hope for the best as soil dont like being flushed it makes it all go out of balance. I grow in coco so cant be sure she will pull through as she looks fckd :thumbsup:
