Okay...Here is an update on the issue...
I transplanted the two females into two, 4-gallon garden pots with some "corrected" soil to which I added some dolomite lime. I raised the ingoing water to a pH of around 8.0 and watered everything. The runoff and slurry tests now are indicating a pH of 6.5. The two females are starting to perk up after about a week. The remaining other three plants that are still in 2-gallon garden pots, are likely males, so I obviously don't care about repotting them until I fully establish their sex. Instead, I'm just using them to experiment with using some homemade, wire "S" clips to train the branches....works great! Once I figured out how to do it, it's my new favorite thing to do to open up and even out the canopy!
Anyway, it looks like what started out as a 8-plant grow, has now come down to a 2-plant grow!
Oh well....shit happens.
In the meantime, I started a couple more seeds that I'm hoping to be fast finishers and be able to do a short veg and play catch up with the females. Looks like I'm gonna have two BIG Chernobyls and mmmmmaybe a Meig's OG and a Presidential Surprise -if everything works out. We'll see!
