Starting back with nutes this week after correcting the pH of the water I've been giving them. The tap water was extremely alkaline and needed to be adjusted down (yay lemon juice!). They appear to have taken to the new pH water really well and grow quite a bit this week.

Soil was pretty wet still when I tested it. It's going on day 4 since I last watered, should I increase my fan speed?

No you should be good from what I saw this was the first fully saturated water you did. Since your in a large pot right from the start watering is a bit tricky and you don't want to fully saturate with runoff until she grows into the pot( 4th or 5th node ). Which is when you start feeding stronger strength's of nutrients. As for nutrients I think your going way to strong. Just looking at other diaries( growdiaries.com/nutrients/fox-farm/grow-big ) that use the same nutrients I am seeing late veg plants being fed 10ml/gal. So I would drop your dose down to 2ml/gal and then increase to 5ml/gal. when she gets larger( auto eat less ) Your using tap water so it is recommended to let the tap water sit over night to air off the chlorine. Good luck and Happy Growing.

The tap water I've been watering my plants with is very alkaline, the pH came out to around 10 when I measured it with a digital reader. Should I water it again with pH adjusted water early or wait until the soil dries out to avoid overwatering? Soil and nutes pH was ~8.6.

I'd get that PH down as soon as possible! Your plants aren't able to take up any of the nutes you're giving them and the plant is going to suffer. Flush with PH'd water (go for 6.0-6.5) at the rate of 3 gallons of water for every gallon of pot size... The last gallon you run through on your flush should contain your nutes. THEN let it dry out completely before watering. Good luck - I think everything will be fine! You're lucky you caught this when you did as autos don't really NEED any nutes until they're about the age yours are! Always, always, always let the soil dry out between watering/feeding... and make sure what you're giving her is PH'd to 6.0-6.5!
