Added a frosting of DE on day 25, watered for the first time since yesterday with straight 4.9 pH dehumidifier run off water due the the added alkalinity of the DE run off pH LSD 1 6.9, LSD 2 6.8, LSD 3 6.6, LSD 4 7.1, Gelato 1 6.7, Gelato 2 6.6.
So a little high but I don't think dangerously so.
Don't know if I should start some gentle feeding, I have been water straight water for about 14 days at this point.

DynaGrow, most of the early mess is due to ODing them on ProTek, I'm pretty sure, won't make that mistake again.

Gonna want some BB like raw microbes or something if using and organic nutrients. Scrape that DE out that soil is already buffered and it may screw with the ph

Using? originally intended as a pest preventative but it was such a mess I probably won't be using in this context again.

Diatomaceous earth is made from the fossilized remains of tiny, aquatic organisms called diatoms. Their skeletons are made of a natural substance called silica. Over a long period of time, diatoms accumulated in the sediment of rivers, streams, lakes, and oceans. Today, silica deposits are mined from these areas.

google. :P
