Gaia Green 284, also known as Power Bloom, contains beneficial microbes. It is formulated with natural nutrients and beneficial microbes to enhance flowering, fruiting, and root development. The microbes are already present in the fertilizer and contribute to long-lasting, slow-release nutrition.plus i added recharge during late veg

Where did you find that information? I haven't been able to confirm it. The label doesn't mention microbes.

You might be thinking that because the ingredients are organically derived that the fertilizer contains microbes. The organic source is the main reason they're called organic. Organic fertilizers, derived from natural sources like plants and animals, release nutrients slowly and improve soil health. Synthetic fertilizers, on the other hand, are manufactured and provide readily available nutrients but can negatively impact soil over time. New growers often get confused when specific recommendations about the use of each type of fertilizer are conflated, when the two usually are quite different.

lol AI Overview
For optimal fungal activity in cannabis soil, a pH range of 5.5 to 7.0 is generally recommended. This range supports a healthy mycorrhizal network,

To achieve full optimization, fungal vitality must be considered as one among multiple growth factors. It's important to consider that the fungai are in a mutualistic symbiotic relationship with the plants. A pH that is too low can excessively dissolve micronutrients, running the risk of toxicity. (Source: Dr. Bruce Bugbee video.) That risk increases below a pH of about 6.2, due to increased solubility of micronutrients as acidity increases. So, sure, by your AI Overview, you might have viable fungai at a pH of 5.5, but you might not have well-nourished plants. Due to the symbiotic relationship, I would question whether the fungai could be healthy if the plants are not. So, what should the word "optimal" mean is this sense? My take on being "optimal" would be for the pH to be at a level that works for both nutrient availability and fungal vitality, because it is illogical to consider a pH to be "optimal" or even acceptable if it is not within a range that promotes the growth of healthy plants.
