adding lime to soil w/ plants already in.(help needed)
So Ive been having a humidity problem since i started flowering, as fall progresses Ive noticed the humidity dropping for us(40-30) but today I went in my room at first light and the humidity was 19%!! That's the lowest Ive ever seen it, so I put a big container of water(10 gallon) in there to try and add some moisture along w/ a little cheesy vicks humidifier(probably the cheapest u can buy) and I misted my room and turned off a fan
...and my humidity is barely at 32%. Now what I'm thinking is that my room exhaust fan is just too strong and that whatever moisture is in there , just gets sucked up too fast...I mean I have A giant charcoal filter(like 32 inches wide,3 ft long,8")...and a vortex fan sucking 650 cfm...but my room only requires 275 cfm(i figured w/ the filter and 20-30 feet of ducting it balanced out....but Im not sure now?)
So I was thinking of just getting a good sized humidifer($100-200,one that could handle 600-1000 square ft and has at least 1.5-3 gallon container)
you think this would fix my problem? or should I be thinking differently?any recommendations?steezyd Reviewed by steezyd 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\"Just doing what I can, w/ what I got\"
