if one of my plants are locked out from low ph do i just flush with high ph water and add so fert. after that or what. First time having this problem the plant is yellowing from bottom up and it hasn't grown a bit since a couple of days or more probaly a week . I was trying on waiting for the soil to dry before correcting, soil is dry now.No new growth at all this past week.I water when soil is dry finger deep which is about a week maybe a couple days shorter or longer depending on the air flow i got in the tent.also need to get the humidity up its hitting around 30 if my thing is right.

Well if it's actually in nute lock out because of a low pH, then yes this would be the plan. How did you test the soil? What was the pH if so?
To flush you are going to flush with a pH of about 7.5-8.0 depending on how low your soil is, this can be adjusted depending on the soil pH.

plants seem to be doing better since the flush with high ph water never did a soil test just took a chance on it

He raised the pH of his water because his soil pH was too low, and he needed to correct it.
