Hey guys first time grower ever. Was measuring the runoff PH and PPM of my hopefully ladies. It seems alot lower than what I'm putting in. 5.2 runoff. I'm putting in 5.8 to 5.9 PH 200ppm With botanicare cal mag plus and GH 3 part micro flora and bloom. 1.5 ml cal mag, 1ml of the other 3 per gallon of distilled 0ppm water. My seedlings are about 11 days old. Why is the PH out lower than what I'm putting in? Attached a pic of before transplant to larger pots. I flushed the new coco in the larger pots with tap water to remove salts. Then soaked in a 350ppm calmag and rooting enhancer solution for a few hours before I transplanted them to avoid shocking them. Plants look healthy. Growing like crazy. Not getting much height yet but they're still babies and only on their 4th node.
