i'v always wondered why people bother with the run off... just worry about what's going in.

What's in your medium? Any lime? Lot's of folks on here don't worry about their mediums ph runoff, myself included. I water out of the tap ph is 8. No worries though. If your mediums good so is your plant.

Buy a really good soil pH meter and then you will find out that Run Off is bullshit .. Sure it will work but forget about accurateness with run off readings ..

No, make sure everything that goes in the soil is 6.5 ph. If the soil was 3.3 your plants would be history.
