That's fine, but I'm not the knowledgeable one.
There are a few guys here that I wait for answers or go to if I have a problem.;-)

No problem. 6.2 is not bad or wrong. If having micro issues the first thing to do is lower pH under 6. Thats all. Maybe check runoff for fun???? I bet its up around 6.5 or higher.

ALSO,
regardless of what coco co's represent, including Canna, often the salt isn't completely rinsed.....a salt mitigator like Sea Green or Drip Clean can do wonders in battling this unwanted salt. I dont want to argue salt content of coir's by any stretch but salt mitigators are something to look into. Sea Green is organic......

We don't need to start name calling and shit but you couldn't be more wrong. I constantly feed 5.5 to coco and as low as 5.1. Since I have a Degree in Ag Sc I really dont need to click a link to "420 magazine". Child please! Bust out some more hate and I'll post a few pics of low pH coco runs and you can find a link to back peddle with. Clearly, you have done quite a bit of reading but that is no replacement for actually growing in coco, agreed? 5.8 is where you want to be for most soilless applications. Peace.

do what you have to do, and i could do the same. i ph my mixes at 6.5 for veg and 6.4 for flower and could show you a thing or two so i am far from wrong. i go by facts and what i'm experiencing and if you look at the chart that you so gladly posted it will show you that a lot of nutrients aren't available in 5.1-5.5 range, total contradiction of what you say.
as for hate, it seems like others have it more for me than i have for any.

Maybe the hate directed toward you has something to do with your attitude? You don't seem to be open to anything but being right....which you are not. You dont even take the time to read posts.....I never posted a chart as you suggest. My knowledge on the subject does not come from a chart but real life growing....what some call experience. Stop spreading misinformation as gospel truth. Maybe suggest a topic for discussion rather than claim to be the all knowing pro.....Which you clearly are not. Why did you not mention to check runoff to find out where the media is at? Some pro you are. Lighten up dude. Stop taking yourself so serious. Peace.

Put a bit more water into the nutrient solution in case its some very mild nute "burn", drop the PH to 5.8, plants look healthy to me overall but if you want to play it safe drop to 5.8 and add some more water.

Wow, 8 whole plants? Thats very impressive. :clap: I'm a little bit bigger than that. I dont have anything to prove to you with pics. I never said you couldn't grow only that your comment that big lockout problems occur under 6 is total bullshit. That's it. I even mentioned that 6.2 wasn't wrong but at signs of micro lockout lowering to 5.8 is as good idea. You proclaimed the apocalypse if a pH under 6 was used and you quoted some damn chart.

Lets take it over to a more established board? What a child. Regardless of what board we are on 5.8 is not wrong, I've even used lower. I'm here to help people not argue with closet growers with 2 lights.

Can you get through a post without calling someone lame?

lol, i just might be. would love to know who im going back and forth with. come to think about it, i doubt i'd be embarrassed though, i had to defend myself so much on this board i really could care less who you really are whether it be a breeder, best grower, best friend and so on and so on. i stand tall and stay true to who i am, even if you or anyone think you're that special.
i go by what i've been taught and what's been productive through plenty of experimenting and researching on my part in my short time of growing. through it all, one thing i notice is that that textbook shit applies here and there, a lot of things people say or repost that's suppose to be right and exact is shit they've read and just passing on, never experimenting due to the fact that isn't what you're suppose to do and be the first one to post a help me thread.

Wow, you are so bitter and angry you cant even keep straight who you are exchanging with. I never posted a chart nor did I ever demand anything of anyone. If you were to actually read the threads you would see that I said 6-6.2 in coco is not bad or wrong but that if you are experiencing micro issues the first thing to do is lower pH to 5.8.

You're really kinda cute.....trying to spit knowledge about cations and anions and pH change when you really have not idea what you're talking about but are sure you read it somewhere. What about different forms of N having different affects on pH? What about biology and compost tea and its affects on pH.

What about 23 years old? LMAO I have kids that age! I have an agriculture degree form UC Davis, a 15 year career at an estate winery that went from conventional to organic to Demeter Certified Biodynamics. I've been growing indoors for 25 years and in the foothills of cali for a few before that. When I speak about growing I promise you the words come from experience and its quite a bit more than your "first ever coco run". ROFLMAO!

I really dig that you dont even realize that you are confusing me with the other guy......so entertaining! Any other knowledge you care to share?

Stop taking yourself so seriously.........

lol well what a funny thread love how fresh2death can base every thing on a first grow 8 plants pmsl. im no pro grower done coco a couple times when i start seing problems first thing i check is that my ph is somewhere between 5.5 and 5.8 but guess what when problems arise it always higher like 6.3 6.5 i also like to think that not all tap water is the same so really ph would change to what water u use but i dont know, but i do know one thing you are an absolute GIMP stop givin noobish advice or try but dont stand there and argue when u know fuck all about growing.. we can all read but times change so do plants so really some old time cannabis theories get pushed out the window..

After all the shit you spew I can't believe you throw up a pic of mid grade "B" weed schlock! That shit goes for 35/sack around here. You are exactly what I thought, a kid with 2 lights in a closet. My god, if my work looked like that I'd only have a closet too! The problem is you have never seen real work done by pros. Hey man, why is trich production so thin at the tip of your buds? I swear it looks like someone rubbed em off? LMAO

So I nailed your age , huh? ;) Can't read a plant slick? C'mon, I thought this was about the proper pH......i thought we all agreed it was micro issues? You cant keep shit straight.

I cant believe you posted THAT and thought anyone would be impressed........ OUCH!

You might not have so many "Haters" if you just came and gave your opinion, instead of trying to have internet balls, call names and say you are 'right' and we are 'wrong'.
It just goes to show you can't even read since it was ME not GK that put up the fucking chart for the OP to view and formulate her own opinion.
Furthermore, several of the people here that you have been arguing with HAVE pics of their grows, but do not feel the need to post them to prove a point.
Their advice has been taken and proven to work in the past.

By the way, you need to do something about that fixation you have with cocks.
