Alright, so I'm not giving up so easily on this thing quite yet, seeking advice. Trying to boost nitrification upon demand.

I notice that the dextrose is fairly acidic, and I used a bit of potassium bicarbonate to raise the ph, back up to 6, maybe I did it too much, maybe that's too far... Should the acidity be left around 5 -5.5 and allowed to naturally rise? And what concentrations might be used for soil growth in either ppm or perhaps mg/tsp per liter or gallon.

Any information on administering dextrose would be greatly appreciated.
