I would shoot for a lil higher than 6.2 , i always run my soil at 6.5 ...so if your at 5.0 hit it with some 7.5-8 and get your soil back to 6.0-6.5
NO NO NO Don't go way high. If you get above about 6.6 you'll cause another set of lockouts. Just ph to about 6.4, a proper leaching aka flush should still have 1/4 nutes (in hydro anyway). Make sure you always over water by at least 10 percent. You might want to check the runoff's ph. If it's below 5.2 then you are going to have problems.
Also if you haven't used a digital meter before, you should have a friend that has help. Digital meters that are sold in hydro shops aren't perfect. They need to be calibrated often. You should let it sit in the water for a few min, or you might get a false reading.
Hope this helps.
Dolomite lime is used to control and stabilize soil PHWell today i noticed a def. in one of my plants and it looks like cal def but then i tested the run off and it was around 5ish which is alil low for soil. how do i get that up? when i add water or nutes should i run the PH alil higher like 7 maybe to correct it. i mean it still could be cal def so when i watered today i just water with plain ph'ed water and 2 tsp of Mag-i-cal. any thoughts??
Thanks
