I would wait til the pots feel light before watering. If you still have moisture at 2 to 3 inches, then the roots are still saturated.
As for the adjusting PH. Do the same as with hydro, mix all your nutrients in container and adjust PH, then water. When i was using soil I always added dolomite lime to my mix, helps to avoid PH problems during grow.

A perfectly healthy plant will consume it's fan leaves in late flower, starting at the bottom and working up. I have no idea if you have a problem or not from the pics and description you've given. If you are 8 weeks into flower, I would not be making any decisions based on what the lower fan leaves are doing. Pic of the whole plant please and you will get better feedback.

Okay, thanks for the pics. Definitely not a nute burn. They look pretty healthy to me. These girls are just hungry and they are exhausting the nitrogen from your bottom fan leaves. They really don't look like they have been flowering for 8 weeks. But I would call this a flower fade. I would increase your next feeding a little and see if that slows it down. You won't get those yellow leaves to go green again but a little more food will slow it down.

No there only 4 weeks in going on 5 Monday. the 8 weeks were how long I am going to flower them for lol . Yeah the seed company tht I bought thm from says they can take very high levels of nutrients so I'm maybe under feeding them then going to try some cal/mag supplement and up the ec/ ppm see if tht help. Once again ur input has been most valuable Whts ur opinion on increasing ph of nutrients cause if I up to a higher strength the ph of the solution is going to drop even further than 5.8 at the moment .?

I water with low ph rainwater but don't have to worry about it because my soil buffers it back to good range. If you have some lime in your soil mix, you are probably okay. If you aren't sure you can raise your ph quickly with wood ash (like from a fireplace). It works faster than lime.

Ok thnks I will post to let people who have helped know how I get on thanks

Cool, and your 1.2 EC is close to where I liked to keep my plants until I saw signs of them being hungry (600ppm.5). I think for flowering I was maybe at 1.6 (or 800ppm.5) Heavy feeders I might get up to 2.0 EC, but only if they asked for it. I know there are people who go quite a bit higher than this but I"m not a fan of smoking heavily nuted mj.

Try using nutes every other watering. Get PH up and down. adjust the plain water if only using it or the water/nute combo to 6.5.

Having dolomite lime in the soil helps, but i personally have found that when I get lazy adjusting every watering, it shows.

Hey dude ive grown with biobizz for years. First month in all mix there was no need for feeding, then I'd just give em food every watering. No need to worry about ph with organics the soil acts as a buffer, and no need to flush either as there's no chems or toxins to get rid of.
Some plants are light feeders, some are heavy, just start low and build up. Good luck

Yeah man same here been growing in biobizz with nutrients to match grow and bloom and topmax booster at the end . Yeah have been low and boosted up to 8ml per litre of bloom and 1 ml of topmax. If the soil in biobizz acts as a buffer that explains how's soil is still at nearly at a ph of 7 even whn the nutrients ph is 5.8 at present feeding of 8ml per litre . Thanks man for the input much appreciated
