I'm a first time grower, my plants are 35 days old, and I am new to all of this. I'm growing Grandaddy Purp Autos. I cropped the tops on week 3 and my plants took very well to it. I have been doing minor lolipopping and trying to clear the bottoms of my plants and seems it has caused zero stress. I do have 1 mutant plant (not herming) in the back middle. That plant has three blade leaves,BUT has the most bud sites and most pre flowering so far. (Has always been my problem plant since germination).
I literally just set up my SCROG. I realize it's lower to the base of my plants from what I have read, but my plants are simply just really small. I put them through hell (first time grower mistakes) by overwatering, nutrients way too early, lights too close. That's all fixed but plants are just small. I bought a ph reader for the soil today and all my plants are reading 7.1 to 7.2. My PH in the beggining was always 6.0 (per water reading) and after reccommendations I took it up to 6.5. I'm using Fox Farm "Grow Big", Fox Farm "Big Bloom", and today I used BushDoctor "Cal-Mag", Tiger Bloom "Buds and Blooms and black strap mollasses (all at 1/4 dosage).
My questions are what could be causing PH to be higher then what I have been watering for 5 weeks, should I water with a lower PH next time to bring it down and lastly, does my SCROG look correct or should I have it all?
Thank you guys for all the help thus far. You saved my plants in the beggining and taught me alot. Any help would be appreciated.
I have attached pictures of my nutes, a video of my plants just now after SCROG and some pictures along the way
