twell at first the ph was about 5.4 but i adjusted it to about 6.2, but i read somewhere that soilless mediums(such as peat based mediums) should have a ph of around 5.7-6.2 for better nutrient availability. i always thought peat based was considered as soil so i was on my way to adjust the ph aroun 6.5, but now i dont really know what to adjust it to. if anyone could help that'd be appreciated. What ph do you guys use for your soilless mediums??? should i adjust the ph to 5.9 or so or more like 6.5????
smokeallday Reviewed by smokeallday on . ph of the grow medium alright been looking for a few hours and cant find a satisfying answer to my questions. so what do you all think: 1- sphagnum peat moss, perlite and vermiculite medium, is it soil or soilless. noone seems to agree but i would think it is soilless. 2- looked at all the ph charts (for nutrients availability) and some say that soil/soilless mediums should be at the same ph while other say soilless needs to be between 5.7-6.2 and soil 6.5-6.8 or so. damn it gets confusing. if any Rating: 5
