man...I couldn't tell you the pH to save my life. I honestly wouldn't EXPECT lock out simply because it is a fully organic mix that has plenty of lime. I would expect it to buffer out. I water with pure RO....perhaps, as some suggest, I should attempt to mix it with like 30% tap to help it stay at a more stable pH...????
I am certain that light leaks are not the problem...
The time thing bothers me...simply because, the thread in my sig...2009...those plants NEVER really filled out...or performed...all on my part...but I was beating my head into the wall trying to figure out why things weren't performing. About week 6 into flowering, I added more fans into cabinet. I had to unplug a few things....and was certain that everything went back where it came from. The plants stopped filling out, started getting leafier, stretching...I ignored it. Mostly b/c they were soooooooo N deprived I gave them a small shot of N guano like at 4 wks...I know, but they would have NEVER made it through flowering. So I just attributed this change to the late introduction of N. Well, they never really came around...so I just hacked them down, knowing the issue was on my end....lol.
It had crossed my mind then, that the timer wasn't working properly, and I just dismissed it. Now I am almost certain, considering the behavior of these BB Bx1....lol. I'll get to the bottom of this tomorrow...
Worse case scenario this time around, I've been vegging longer than I intended.....
