Also...its a lot of buckets and bags in a small ungainly space, and it will be a lot of work to do thorough flushing and/or transplanting...so, assuming the lazy man's position for a moment...would simply watering like normal with clearex or something, followed by a hydroponics-type liquid ph raising product be a viable alternative?

Again, thanks, and the comment about saving the plants being a process rather than an event is well taken.:toilet_claw:
