    So tomorrow when lights are on should I flush them all until 5.8? And then feed? And then continue water and feed each day after that? If so how much?
    Lights on temps are fine..try and raise the night time temps

    Oh and yes..water/feed them each day with enough water to produce a minimum of 20% runoff, you will have to experiment with that to find out what that is for you

    Personally i like to keep night and day difference between 5-6c. if i cant raise night temps anymore ill try lowering day temps.
    i find myself growing and the 18-24 range in winter. rarely dropping to 17. some strains like this.
    in summer its more in the 24-29 range.

    15c is the point your plant starts to grow much slower. if you can get it up to at least 17-18c youll be ok.

    when do you lights come on/go off?

    in flower my lights come on at 9-10pm when its starts getting colder and go off at 9-10am when day starts to warm up.
    when its super cold, i have the heating come on when lights go out and put thermostat at 17. house is when insulated so i use very little gas.
    one thing to note is i also have a temp controlled fan which i have set to run at 60% when temps drop below 25c and 100% when it exceeds that .

    Definate temp issue . Probably too cool root zone or a fan blowing direct on plant .

    Flushed today and still having the high PH runn off (6.8)

    Should I leave them in a bucket filled with 5.8 ph water an feed for a while so the bottom soaks up. Hopefully that will bring it down?

    How much water would you say you flushed them with each pot?

    grower1988 also asked a good question, what's the EC of the runoff?

    Around 4/5 lts each. And finished with a litre of feed and water too.

    Unable to measure the EC until I can buy a pen on monday

    Remind me again...what's the size of your pots, how many Litres?

    (I want to confirm the 'gallons' you mentioned).

    5 Gallons is like 20 Litres...4/5 Litres simply won't be enough, flushing needs 2-3x the size of the pot.
