GMSgrowsanswered grow question 3 years ago Seeing as you got half soil and half other additives, make it hard for the plant to decide on which ph. You have half soil and half soilless. 5.5 to 6.5 for soilless and 6 to 7 ph for soil. You may want to try to improvise and keep it more around 6.2. Next time you mix your soil keep it to 70 parts soil to 30 parts your other stuff. Then the ph is kept at 6 to 7 with 6.5 being the sweet spot
