If these are not within the ideal availability range, it is only a matter of time before different types of <strong>nutritional problems<\/strong> begin to appear, caused by the accumulation of different types of minerals in the growing medium, which can create a toxic environment for the roots and can even block other nutrients, preventing their proper absorption. <strong>If you maintain control<\/strong> over the pH level in each watering, <strong>nutritional deficiencies and even blockages may still appear<\/strong>, although <strong>the probabilities<\/strong> of them doing so are <strong>much lower,<\/strong> and in the event that they do finally appear, it will be <strong>much easier to restore normality<\/strong> and get the plants looking green and healthy again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_appropriate_pH_for_marijuana_plants\"><\/span><strong>The appropriate pH for marijuana plants<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For a marijuana plant to develop optimally, it is important to keep in mind that <strong>you should not always maintain the same pH value<\/strong> when watering, since <strong>depending on the<\/strong> <strong>variety grown<\/strong>, the <strong>stage<\/strong> it is in (germination, growth, pre-flowering, and flushing), the <strong>growing medium<\/strong> used, and whether we are going to carry out an <strong>organic or mineral<\/strong> crop, the ideal pH values that the irrigation water should contain <strong>vary slightly.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, <strong>you can grow<\/strong> a marijuana plant <strong>by maintaining a constant pH level,<\/strong> although this should oscillate <strong>between 5.5 and 7.0<\/strong>. In this way, decent results can be achieved, although you will not obtain the full potential of the variety grown, nor the maximum use of the applied nutrients. In addition, it is possible that nutritional problems may appear during cultivation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ideal values<\/strong> for marijuana cultivation in <strong>hydroponic, aeroponic, or inert media<\/strong> systems:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>First weeks of development:<\/strong> pH 5.8\u20135.9<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pre-flowering stage:<\/strong> pH 6.0\u20136.2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Actual flowering stage:<\/strong> pH 6.0\u20136.3<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ideal values<\/strong> for marijuana cultivation in <strong>peat mixes or direct soil<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>First weeks of development:<\/strong> pH 5.5\u20136.0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pre-flowering stage:<\/strong> pH 6.0\u20136.2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Actual flowering stage:<\/strong> pH 6.2\u20136.5<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Regulating_water_pH_in_marijuana_crops\"><\/span><strong>Regulating water pH in marijuana crops<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once we have reviewed the pH meters for marijuana and the different regulating liquids, it is time to <strong>learn how to regulate the pH of our irrigation water<\/strong>, although in this sense, we must <strong>differentiate between<\/strong> <strong>watering with only water<\/strong> <strong>and<\/strong> <strong>watering with products<\/strong>, in addition to the <strong>automated irrigation systems<\/strong> used in hydroponic or aeroponic growing media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Watering with only water<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Fill the tank, <strong>let the water rest for a few minutes<\/strong>, insert the meter, and <strong>note the pH value<\/strong> marked when it remains still. Add the amount indicated by the manufacturer to <strong>reduce the pH level point by point<\/strong> until reaching the desired value. If the manufacturer makes no recommendation regarding the dosage, then you must add a small amount of the regulator to the tank, dilute it correctly, and let it rest for a few seconds to measure again. This operation must be performed as many times as necessary until the desired value is reached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Watering with products<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This operation varies according to the range of fertilizers used, since <strong>some manufacturers recommend measuring and regulating the pH before<\/strong> adding their fertilizers, <strong>and others<\/strong> recommend measuring and regulating the pH <strong>after<\/strong> having dissolved them in the irrigation tank. In the event that the fertilizer manufacturer does not indicate anything, it is best to <strong>dissolve the fertilizers one by one<\/strong> in the irrigation tank, stirring them vigorously so that they mix perfectly. Afterward, they must be <strong>left to rest<\/strong> for several minutes so that the pH stabilizes and we can know the exact value of the mixture made. Once this is done, we can <strong>measure the water pH and regulate it correctly.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Watering in hydroponic crops<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In these types of systems, an <strong>irrigation tank<\/strong> is usually used together with an automated irrigation system, which contains the <strong>water and nutrients<\/strong> that the plants need for approximately <strong>1 or 2 weeks<\/strong>. To be able to regulate and maintain the pH level within the ideal values, it is recommended to <strong>use measurement monitors<\/strong> for pH and temperature, which indicate <strong>continuously<\/strong> the pH value of the nutrient tank. Thanks to them, it is very simple and fast to regulate the pH level, since we only have to be attentive to the pH indicator, so that the moment it indicates that the pH value is not within the ideal range, we can modify it immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> to avoid taking too much time when regulating the pH of the irrigation water, <strong>it is recommended to write down the initial pH<\/strong> of the water <strong>and the amount of pH regulator<\/strong> used until reaching the desired value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_regulate_water_pH\"><\/span><strong>How to regulate water pH?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Regulating water pH is a <strong>simple task that can become complicated<\/strong> if you do not have the right tools in perfect maintenance condition. To be able to do it correctly, it is necessary to <strong>have a pH meter<\/strong>, as well as <strong>specific liquids to increase or decrease the pH<\/strong>. Therefore, we are going to give a brief review of pH meters and liquids for regulating pH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>pH meters<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>pH meters are <strong>measurement devices that are quite simple to use<\/strong>, since in general, you only have to <strong>turn them on and insert their probe into the water<\/strong> to know the pH of the analyzed water. To prevent them from offering erroneous measurements and breaking down in a short period of time, <strong>it is necessary to clean them after each use<\/strong>, as well as calibrate them from time to time and keep the probe moist with a maintenance solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Liquids for regulating pH<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>liquids for reducing or increasing the water pH level<\/strong> are formulated with <strong>acidic or alkaline components<\/strong>, and these can be of <strong>organic or mineral<\/strong> origin. Furthermore, and depending on the manufacturer, it is possible to differentiate them between pH regulators for growth and pH regulators for flowering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, <strong>mineral pH regulators<\/strong> are usually formulated with the following components:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Nitric Acid:<\/strong> depending on the concentration, it can be used to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.growbarato.net\/blog\/en\/2-5\/?p=35517&#038;p=68110&#038;p=35517&#038;p=68110&#038;p=35517&#038;p=193831\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">raise the pH<\/a> or lower the pH; it is also ideal for the growth stage due to its high nitrogen concentration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Phosphoric Acid:<\/strong> reduces the pH and is ideal for the flowering stage due to its high phosphorus content, although it can also be used in growth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Potassium Hydroxide:<\/strong> increases the water pH and, due to its high potassium content, can be used in growth and flowering.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Organic pH<\/strong> regulators are usually formulated with the following components:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Humic Acids:<\/strong> increase the pH level and can be used throughout the entire crop, although it is most recommended to use them only in the growth stage, since humic acids reduce THC production.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Citric Acid:<\/strong> lowers the pH and can be used throughout the entire crop without problems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>main difference<\/strong> between organic and mineral pH regulators lies in the fact that <strong>minerals damage the soil&#8217;s micro-life<\/strong>, so it must be recomposed after each use. However, <strong>organic ones do not present any type of problem<\/strong> for microorganism colonies, although a slightly larger amount of product must be used compared to mineral reducers to reach the desired levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_pH_meters_for_marijuana\"><\/span><strong>Types of pH meters for marijuana<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Drop_pH_meter\"><\/span><strong>Drop pH meter<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">This meter is <strong>one of the simplest to use<\/strong>, as it only consists of a <strong>test tube<\/strong>, a <strong>reactive liquid<\/strong>, and a <strong>color chart.<\/strong> To know the pH level of our irrigation water, you just have to fill 3\/4 of the test tube with the water you want to analyze, then add a couple of drops of the reactive liquid, then put the cap on, shake vigorously for a few seconds, and contrast the color that appears with the color chart to know the pH of the analyzed water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to keep in mind that this type of <strong>drop-based reactive meter<\/strong> should only be used with water without any type of fertilizer or product; otherwise, the measurement will be erroneous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Milwaukee_pH_600_Eco_Meter\"><\/span><strong>Milwaukee pH 600 Eco Meter<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>[ppgbo product=&#8221;1814&#8243; language=&#8221;en&#8221;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is one of the <strong>most used pH meters<\/strong> in indoor grow rooms and outdoor crops, given that it is the most economical of all and provides good results.

It is calibrated by inserting the meter into a calibration liquid for pH meters, first at 7.00 pH and then at 4.00 pH. To adjust the pH level with the value of the calibration sachet used, you must turn the small screw it incorporates to one side or the other while looking at the screen to know the value\u2014it&#8217;s that simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>only drawback<\/strong> of this meter is that the <strong>probe must be kept clean and moistened<\/strong> with a maintenance solution for pH meters; otherwise, it is a little easier for it to start giving erroneous values compared to other meters. On the other hand, it is important to know that <strong>it is not waterproof<\/strong>, so the meter should not be inserted beyond the probe itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adwa_AD-100_pH_Meter\"><\/span><strong><strong>Adwa AD-100 pH Meter<\/strong><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This pH meter is a bit more sophisticated than the previous one, since in addition to offering slightly more precise measurements, <strong>it calibrates automatically<\/strong> using pH 7.00 and 4.00 sachets, which are included. Furthermore, by <strong>automatically compensating for temperature<\/strong>, the measurements offered are more precise. This specific model offers <strong>greater resistance and reliability<\/strong> over time, although as with the rest of the meters on the market, if the probe is not kept clean and a little maintenance solution is not added to the cap so that the probe remains moist, it is easy for it to offer erroneous measurements after a short time.

This does not mean that it can be completely submerged underwater to take measurements, but rather that it is simply capable of resisting a fall into the irrigation tank without breaking. Another of the peculiarities of this <strong>waterproof<\/strong> Adwa meter is that the probe can be exchanged in the event that it has been damaged or broken, as they are quite delicate. This allows us to replace it at any time without having to purchase a new pH meter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To <strong>calibrate it<\/strong>, you just have to press the ON\/OFF button for several seconds while it is on, until the letters &#8220;CAL&#8221; appear. Afterward, the meter itself will indicate the value of the calibration sachet in which it should be inserted; first, it will indicate <strong>pH 7.00 and then pH 4.00<\/strong>.
