I am doing soil grow as well, do you know if you adjust the PH in the water/nutes before you water or do you do something with the soil PH? I Just adjust my water/nute PH abut have no idea about my soil PH?

I was always told to add the nutes and then check ph before watering.

Exactly - I'm not sure where all the confusion about this comes from, but I do hear about it a lot.

You want to water your plant with the correct pH - as EMj said 6.5-6.8 soil; 5.8 for hydro.
Add your nutes, get your pH where you want it, water.

If you are using a good balanced soil, I see no point in checking the pH of the soil. Keep your watering pH in check every watering and you should be fine.

6.5 on the PH chart is the ph where all nutrients are available to the plant for uptake. It has to do with your plants too. I have a couple plants that like ph to be at 6.3-6.4 not 6.5 My soil less pro mix likes to be at a lower ph as well.

I would adjust to 6.5 and monitor your plants. You'll see problems if you need to adjust it to a different PH.

6.5 is hard to hit for me. I usually try to end up lower than higher. That's why my ph is mostly between 6.4-6.5
