yes, nutes are very acidic and adding the correct amount of the nutes can drive the pH down into the 4's! PH up is required to bring it back up to 6.3. When you are dealing with plain water, this is where the pH down comes in. You are not going to kill your girls by having the pH a little off one time... all that would happen is that the nutes would not be as available to the plant as they could have been.
Ok thanks so much. I will post a new picture in a few days and mean time let you know if anything bad happens so we can save my girls.

It is SOOOO dry in my house, and when it gets as cold as it has been I cannot run the humidifier too high or the windows get condensation. The plants are around 15RH somtimes. I have even cloned when it is this dry with great success (although with aqua cloning they are getting moister from the stems constantly. I have noticed the plants are much happier when its humid though, I can feel it in the air when they are happy. My room feels like a jungle.
I’m hoping for way more than 6 grams a gallon. I’m in 3 gallon fabric pots. My grow room is like a jungle too! I run a humidifier right at my intake of my tent. Were in winter here but I suspect a dehumidifier may be needed for my next grow as I will be into summer. I keep my RH at 44-45% and temp 68-70 degrees. My lights are 20/4.
I have learned that during the wintertime in my new house, with the attic grow rooms having no insulation between them and the metal roof, I have a problem. When I raise humidity and temperature upstairs and it is much colder outside it can actually rain inside my grow area! Well, maybe not clouds and lightning and all that, but I get condensation above my ceiling because of the difference in temperatures and the high humidity from the grow rooms and enough water is collected, especially on watering days, that it drips from the ceiling in various places around the attic. Luckily there is a bit of a slant to the room up there, or I would be very worried about drips falling down into my lights, and it turns out that just by sheer luck I located all the lights on the high side of the room. This problem will go away when the warmer temperatures return, but before next winter I need to blow some insulation in between the peak of that metal roof and the interior ceiling or this little problem is likely to cause some real damage to my house.
Absolutley, a little problem can turn into a much bigger deal. Much cheaper to get your attic insolated, might even save you on heating and cooling.
it will be a snap... cut a few holes and rent one of those blow in insulation machines... an ounce of prevention that will be well worth the minimal time and expense to fix. Ignoring the problem could have profound consequences, so we are going to avoid that as best we can.
