Your soil pH is FINE! The pH of run off is the pH of the run off. NOT the pH of the soil! Keep pHing the in-going and forget about soil pH.

You water soil and the pH of the soil drops by like a whole point. As the soil dries back out, it rises back to it's "normal" pH. This is natural and GOOD!

Your problem looks more like you had an earlier pH instability and it's come back out of it.
Things to do -

Add a little Ca/Mg to help stabilize the soils pH - Use one that has a Ca that buffers well, G&H CALi MAGic uses a Ca source that does buffer better then other sources of calcium (in liquid supplements).

Continue pHing to that 6.7

Don't change over to bloom nutrients till at least week 3 after the lighting change! Avoiding too much P too early is a great way to a healthier plant that yields closer to it's potential.

Kinda looks like it maybe on that path.....maybe, hard to say with that old pH trouble showing..

Get your self a stronger light source! Not enough light intensity - spindly, weak looking plant.

Do I see LED blurple in there? Closer and add more lighting of some type to boost that intensity.

Good luck

Thanks for the advice. My main light is off so i can take a clear pic and it did just came back from a calmag problem. I fixed alot of problems checking the run off from the soil.

5th week decided to experiment a little. I cut the tops off the calyst to see if it makes the buds grow bigger. Let's see what happens. A fuck up or not.IMAG0420.jpg IMAG0419.jpg IMAG0420.jpg IMAG0418.jpg IMAG0417.jpg IMAG0416.jpg IMAG0415.jpg IMAG0414.jpg IMAG0413.jpg

What's a calyst? Lol.... that plant is hurting in all sorts of ways.. Do yourself a favor first thing, forget about and never check ph again.

Nice grow, I was going to point out just a couple of things but nvm everyone else did already, good job on keeping her alive by any means, what strain is it? You mention this was your second time growing this strain, you got any pics of the first harvest?

I don't know what strain, because it's a bag seed.
