No need to pH plain water or nute solutions in soil. Its a practice in futility and only adds things(pH =/- solutions)to your medium it does not need. No matter what you pH them too they will still buffer to the mediums pH in a half hour or so.

Flushing is for toilets, not plants...organic or synthetic nutes........you can begin to cut your nutes back a bit the last couple of weeks.
Flushing is for correcting issues such as nute overdose.

Hi The Yellowing is down to N deficency as some 1 has said most plants will loose lower leaves as the nutes go to the top of plant And the leaves die of due to no nutes at the bottom people have different opinions on ph but between 6.4 and 7.0 i would say that would be fine. Look at this table for any sign/symptoms sure it will help

Hoping my buds are going to start filling out.I have a couple plants with a shitload of golfball size colas.There is 2-3 inches of space between the top buds and the lower ones on the stem.Will they most likely fill out and form together?Hoping so or I will be stuck with lots of golf ball sized nugs.

What strains are they Dozer? If the light intensity is strong enough then its probably genetics.

How many weeks are you in to flowering? And with any nutrient problems, flush your plants then use that chart to correct the problem. Not flushing your plants leaves the current problem in the soil/medium. Flush! Flush! Flush!

Also for fertilizer, its all pretty much user choice. Jus go high on N for veg (I recommend Fox Farm Grow Big. Has a tomato on the front.) And high on Phosphorus for flowering. (I recommend Tiger Bloom) and always maintain a health potassium level. You can go all organic if you wanted. All user preference. [Also, post picks of buds please!]

Purple kush 600 watt hps with a bunch of 40 watt fluoros. around 5-7-7.5 room seems pretty bright in there.A few have nice long fat colas and a few like these are just short and bushy with lots of buds.Really prefer the long fat ones but, it is what it is I guess!

Still fighting with the nitrogen problem. i am only a few weeks from harvest dont want to give them too much n.This plant is the worst as far as needing n.Any suggestions should i still feed n while 6 weeks along in flower.The seed company says 8-9 weeks flower time any guesses to how long?

I wouldn't stress over it Dozer, they dont look that bad to me, maybe slight lack of nitrogen combined with natural yellowing due to flowering almost finished is my guess
