Thanks for the reply brother with the apple cider vinegar how would I dilute 1ml/L then water with every watering for 3 weeks?I just use white wine or apple cider vinegar to bring the ph down to where I want it and water the plants, both for Coco and Soil.
I've only been doing this with Canna Coco Pro Plus and Canna Terra Pro Plus soil and only using the Canna Nutes designed for the grow medium so keep that in mind before using it in other soils or Coco.
I have also started using Ecothrive Charge and Ecothrive Biosys and plants seem to love it.
Happy growing
Ok great advice thanks brother then water as usual?I would just top dress with un-limed 100% peat. Usually around 5.0 to 5.5 pH. Couple handfuls should start dropping it.
Quick google search kind of finding hard to get thatI would just top dress with un-limed 100% peat. Usually around 5.0 to 5.5 pH. Couple handfuls should start dropping it.
You would need a PH meter because it depends on the PH of the tap water or other you start with, mine is close to PH 8 and EC 250, 40 ml vinegar per 10 L usually brings it down to around PH 6Thanks for the reply brother with the apple cider vinegar how would I dilute 1ml/L then water with every watering for 3 weeks?
What kind of soil is it? Sounds like you don't need to do anything. You might need some ph up. If the water is already 6.0, nutes will make it way too low.Tried the search function and found nothing
My soil has a ph of 7
Any of you guys have proven methods to bring down ph
I’m getting a ph meter today to test water and get a better reading of the soil
I’ll be going to the store to get some PH-
Will getting my water at 6 do the job and over a bit of time to soil will adjust/ if my water is already at 6
What should I do from there?
Brother I’m none of the aboveAre you in the US or Canada? Peat shouldn't be too hard to find in small amounts if so. It is also called spaghnum moss. Box store like Lowes or Home depot?

Sooo if I dial in my PH of the water which I’ll be checking todayYou would need a PH meter because it depends on the PH of the tap water or other you start with, mine is close to PH 8 and EC 250, 40 ml vinegar per 10 L usually brings it down to around PH 6
If your just giving plain water under 50ppm, the ph doesn't matter one bit. If you add nutes to it, then ph matters.Brother I’m none of the above
Where I am it’s hard getting the quality stuff I see you guys write about
Fox farm.. one can dream
I did 1/4 manure
3/4 Organic Potting mix
Shot of bonemeal
Shot of fish blood and bone
Shot of coffee grounds
Think I’ll try what @JSW1973 suggest
White wine vinegar
40ml/10L
I was stirring to that anyway but I want to get my soil right first will just adding PH6 water do that of time??
however I’m using spring bottled water so I’m yet to k ow the PH yet I’m picking up a used PH pal pen
Fingers crossed it’s calibrated to check my water
however let’s say the water is at 6 my seedlings are at day 9
Shouldn’t the soil have settled by now
my medium mix is hot but shouldn’t think to hot
You shoud definitely add 20% perlite.I did 1/4 manure
3/4 Organic Potting mix

but look View attachment 1142801
However look at my prongs
How would I do this now work it in from the top??You shoud definitely add 20% perlite.

I forgot you already planted. Too late now, but when you transplant you could.How would I do this now work it in from the top??
Till about half way down staying away from the roots??
I can see run off so drainage may not be a issue
+ I can see run off but how would I work it in because they are in there final Pot
with the ph meter I agree
Too late in final pot hahaI forgot you already planted. Too late now, but when you transplant you could.
