So I mixed up 15 cans of supersoil to subcools recipe and I just realized I added hydrated lime instead of dolomite lime :nailbiting:
I've never used hydrated lime before, but I've read it can burn your plants easily if you overdo it. Its also not a substitute for dolomite lime as a soil amendment. Anyone know if 3/4 - 1 cup of hydrated lime per 12 cubic feet of soil is going to be problematic? Should I still add dolomite to act as a pH buffer and magnesium supplement? My tapwater is borderline hard and I'm not sure if that would be too much calcium. I would hate to have to spend and make another batch...
