some of ur pics seem to show ur pots setting in those clear plastic trays that catch runoff and keep the floor dry. soil grown plants should NEVER be allowed to set in standing runoff.always drain to waste. do you elevate ur pots above these catch basins ??
seventhchild Reviewed by seventhchild on . adding lime to soil w/ plants already in.(help needed) ok so Im using sunshine no.4 soil less mix(no nutrients in soil) and i tested my runoff after the first week of veg and the ph is 5.7-6.0...I would like it 6.3-6.6 but i didnt mix any dolomite lime into my soil like i probably should have...So what should I do to raise the ph? i know giving it higher ph'd water is a quick fix, but that doesnt seem the way to go, can i put some lime just at the top of soil?maybe 2 inches deep or so in certain parts and just continue to water? any advice would Rating: 5
