PH ISSUE FLOWERING..any ideas on what I should do?

Its day 43 of flower and 3 of my plants have been taking in nutes/ tap water ph'd to 6.3 and as of today its at 6.9 when i tested the runoff after feeding. I'm planning on starting to flush hopefully within a week maybe little longer, but as of now I would be giving them nutes probably about 2-3 more times before the flush starts. I'm wondering if anybody has an opinion on whether i should just give them straight water until flush or.....??

THis is Soil? the PH run off mean nothing.. Nore does the PH in.. what kind of soil is it? how are you testing PH? Did you put a PH buffer in your soil?

means nothing? its foxfarm soil idk what foxfarm. i acquired 7 plants from a buddy of mine n threw them into flower 43 days ago.. Testing (bluelab ph meter and GH ph liquid test kit) whether or not there wat a buffer put in the soil i don't know. well if your saying it means nothing where would you suggest i go from here.. I was kind of assuming a ph issue could be going on considering i had drainage issues n less airflow with these plants earlier in flowering, but as of now all new growth had been looking amazing. was just wondering if the excess runoff being high is a bad thing i guess. My other plants have barely a raise in the ph in the runoff so i thought maybe this could be the reason some leaves are cupping and have the "claw" Ever since i've been watering them correctly and have increased the airflow on that side of the room it seems to me as there doing better anyways.

I don't know where the fuck this ph means nothing in soil bullshit came from but it does mean something. I don't know much about soil though. I do know what a "buffer" is, but people need to stop spreading that bull shit all over here. Not everyones tap ph is the same. That being said, I would join a bigger thread where established soil growers are at to ask them about this stuff. Otherwise you just get little 16 year old douche bags who don't know shit responding.

You just posted 'new growth looks great'. By reading runoff which mean dick you are creating a problem out of nothing. Read your plants. Not a bunch of useless runoff numbers.

Douche bag or not what VX posted was correct. Runoff pH and what pH drenches going in when growing in soil mean dick. The mediums pH cannot be altered by changing the pH of your drench and saying otherwise, now thats forum BS.

I haven't changed anything beacause of the reading i just got on the runoff. I was simply looking for opinions on whether this could be an issue or not? And about the ph meaning nothing i obviously threw that reply out the window. I was just curious on what people had to say about the runoff being higher then what was put in .

Dont even let it worry ya. Your fine, two weeks left, no big deal. Finnish out as you normally would dont change a thing. Smoke one and relaaaaaaax

It tells you NOTHING about the mediums actual pH.

sounds good
