Evan,

Please.
Take all this slow. I want to list some questions...

1. How are you measuring your soil's ph? Your soil's ph looks quite low to me. Im not interested in your water. Or your waste runoff.
What is the soil's ph?

2. What is your soil amended with? Do you know?
NPK?

3. Ph down, can build up in your soil. This creates acid in the soil. Whether its phosphoric, nitric, sulfuric, or citric.
I stay clear of ph down for soil. Amend your soil, dont bath it in acidic water trying to neutralize it. Id top dress with some lime. (find the true ph value of your soil first).

4. How often does the plant get watered? Ample waste runoff every time?
Aeration /drainage?

5. If the low ph of your soil is amendment related, flushing will fix the problem for bugger all time. 2 days later you'll likely be back to square one.

Plain water. No down.

Give us more information. Starting with soil ph.

Good luck,

Tim.

:peace:

1: I have a ph meter
2: I think you mean what nutrients I'm using General hydroponics flora nova bloom, kool bloom, flora nectar, and calimagic
3: I almost never use ph down (but I just flushed and I used ph with the flush fml I didn't know)
4: I water every 3 or 4 days usually and there isn't much run off

How do I check the soil ph?

They look dark. Too much N. Suggest too much of other elements. Salt build up.

I'd say mix your nutes weaker and water more. You want good run off to prevent salt build up.

For.the time being I don't think you need to flush. Just water only the next two or three waterings with plenty of run off.

Always start nutes at 1/4 strength and work up. I usually don't go above half strength.
