I am using an organic soil consisting of Kellogg Patio Plus mixed with 25% perlite in 5 gallon containers. I just transplanted my plants about two weeks ago & I have noticed that I cannot get my ph lower than 7.5. my plants were doing fine until a few days ago I noticed that they were not thriving any longer. in fact they are showing signs of mg and maybe zinc defs. I added some epsom salt to help but I understand that if the ph is off then lockout is the likely culprit. Its too late to remix the soil and I am hoping that someone will have some tips on how to lower my ph to a suitable level like 6.5 so that my lil one will be able to suck up what they need. they are all about a foot tall now. Any help would be appreciated. Unable to post any pics at the moment but I will as soon as I fix this damn computer! thanks...
