To Serve Man.... The peat moss will not be quick acting. It will take weeks to bring down the pH. In the meanwhile, pH some water to 5.8 & flush repeatedly (until the runoff water shows to be 6.5 or slightly under).
.
Your current soil pH is locking out way too many nutes. The flushing with the pH adjusted water is a must......

Hope this helps.....

Alright, I ran through only 1 1/2 gallons of 5.8 phed water and it dropped the ph down to 6.5-6.7. The runoff for both checks were around 6.5-6.7 and I checked the soil and the ph was at 6.7. Hopefully this helps. I was just really surprised that it only took 1 1/2 gallons. I did flush it (with non-phed water, but our tap water is 7. a week or so ago with about 6 gallons. It is still getting worse, but hopefully this will solve it. What should I do now to get this girl back on track guys? How long until I see results. I'm going to do my WW with the same, and from here on out I'm going to check that fuckin ph!

To Serve Man...... Feed her weakly / weekly for two weeks, using a combo of grow & bloom nutes. Use 1/4 strength grow nutes & 1/2 strength bloom nutes. Add a teaspoon of Cal-Mag or Mag-i-cal into each gallon of water you use to feed and/or water with, during this two week dailing back in period. Let the medium dry out slightly, between watering & or feeding sessions also.
.
This will help her build back up her strength and recover from the pH stress. Then resume your normal watering / feeding schedule. If the pH of your runoff gets to 6.8 or above, starting working it back down in small increments.
.
Low, Slow & Steady......
.
Hope this helps....

Thanks OhSo. Can I just add the Mag-i-Cal directly to my teas when I bubble it? Also, should I use it all through the flowering period, or just this 2 week period? Can I use it on my other grows all through the flowering period?
