LOL now that thar was funny. Yup ole @leadsled knows his shit. :DDammit... @leadsled info is like a unicorn fart. It rarely comes around but I try to bag it!
I used no lime. I decided to take your advice and just mix up the base soil parts and get that tested. it was just 1part malibu compost, 2 parts wormgold plus, 3 parts premier peat and 2.5 parts growstones .5 part red lava rock and 1(ish) part black owl biochar.Lol i cheat too. +life fungal and bacterial innoculant...haha
this was supposed to be the quote i used.@DopeSnob You have excess cations that are contributing to high PH. What did you use for lime? Oyster shell flour or ag lime?
Magnesium raises ph 1.6 times more than other cations.
Flush it with Solution Grade Ag Gypsum. Lower the Mg, K and Na and the ph will drop.
How much soil did you mix? 1 cubic foot?After a lil research i think i fuked up on the GS. Says on their website to wash the stones then soak them in 6.5 ph water for 24hrs to remove "excess calicuim from the manufacuturing process". Like an idiot i Didnt look it up beforehand. I wonder if that exceas calcium didnt really have a bunch of mag in it as well. Seams likely.
Made 10 cf then split it in half and did a revised coots revised mix in one, and had the other tested. Stuff in the coots mix doing great, bout a week in flower. I'm thinking bout adding 3 cf of peat n 1.5 of red lava rock... maybe some citric acid adjusted waterings and then have er tested again. Flushing would be really extensive but not out of the question... would have to flush ea cu.ft bc its all in a 45 gallon bed right now. Think that i have to flush to fix this?How much soil did you mix? 1 cubic foot?
Going to amend it and go or make a new batch?
Next time you make a base mix. The best bet is to make a smaller amount. I like to do 1 cubic foot. Test that and then proceed with a larger amount of soil.Made 10 cf then split it in half and did a revised coots revised mix in one, and had the other tested.
