Soil pH is acidic

Beginner
#1

I’ve added Molasses to my plants while in the flower stage. About a week later the pH became acidic. I know it’s due to the molasses.

I tried buffering it with Dolomite lime. I topped dressed with one tablespoon. Then I added a tablespoon to 1 gallon of water and water the plants. Plants are in 2 gallon pots. I did not flush the plants. I only water them with the lime mixture.

After about a week I have not noticed any Improvement. The plant seems to be getting worse with leaves turning yellow and other symptoms from nutrient lockout. The buds are looking ok.

Should I just go ahead and flush the plants? The pots still seem pretty heavy as if they’re not taking up anything. I’m not sure if I should flush because I don’t want to overwater. What should I do in this situation?

It’s pretty rough to overdue molasses it’s another feed the soil not the plant I assume your using soil and not coco coir but when you feed your soil bennies you can also feed the bad ones too which can cause them to explode only remedy is to flush them out and they to stabilize the soil how far along in flower are you? When things got real sideways when I grew in soil I repotted if done correctly the plants don’t suffer more than a day or two but that’s just my two cents

Growing medium is coco coir and gaia green 444 and 284 with worm casting. I’ve been growing with this throughout the whole grow cycle and I haven’t experienced any issues. It’s day 38/63 of flower. If I’m not mistaken I do remember growing in the past with coco coir and the pH turn the acidic. That could be the issue. I’m not for sure but everything has been growing good throughout the whole veg cycle and like 4 weeks of flowering.
