How much dolomite lime per litre/gallon of soil to raise PH by 1 point? Thanks!
kushinatorstarted grow question 3 years ago
Hi there! I overfed my plants a bit, which I think led to a sudden drop in soil PH as runoff is at 5.5 to 5.7. I will give it more water PHed to 6.6 to flush it, but also wanted to sprinkle some dolomite lime over the soil to raise PH. How much should I add to raise it by 1?

Hi mate, testing runoff while using soil is a little OTT and unneeded. Soil is a great buffer and as long as you art giving her 6-6.5 you should be fine. If you are seeing issues with your plant due to PH you may have to check your equipment. I hope this helps, good luck and happy growing

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200.
I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new).
Should I increase EC of the feeding water?
I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.Setup. Strain - Autoflowering

expert opinion asked ? Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder)Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder)
I'm not sure about the degree of ripeness.
I used Co2 for a few weeks (1000ppm), the grower says ~60-70 days of flowering, so I would be missing 10-20 days, but they look quite ripe ?
What should I do
Thank you

Help: potential over fertilisation or over waterningI used Biobizz bio grow, 2ml/L and sprayed them more than usual. The tip of the leaves is getting yellow. 2 plants have the leaves pointing down and seem more textured and tick. The other 2 (the biggest) seem better, but the yellowing of the leaves is more evident.

Questions about wateringI created a 40 ml solution, the instructions say to transplant after the sprout has grown to the top of the plastic cover and the roots are visible through the plug. The question is, is 40 ml of liquid enough for this growth? I think not.

Hydroponic PPM and feeding. How do I match magnesium sulphate to potassium for flowering??Do I got this right? Hydroponic Flowering cannabis eats at a rate of 1-1-2 and for maximum useage, feeding 1-1-2 makes sense. Extra nutes outside the ratio is wasted and extra. You want highest PPM possible before burning. Will extra Cal-Mag burn roots/leaves?Feeding. Other

Terpinator (During Flush or Not)For those of you who use Terpinator, do you prefer using it up until harvest or do you prefer still cutting out everything during your flush? I know its' advertised as being able to use during flush so I'm not worried it's unsafe. Just figured I'd see what my fellow growers like!Week 10

Coco grow: the EC of my runoff is consistently 0.2 mS/cm lower as what goes in (1.1 in at this time, runoff is at 0.9). Also, PH of runoff is at 5.8, while 6,5 goes in. Is this a problem? What causes this? Its been 8 days since germination and they look healthy.
