Personally I’d toss the soil or go get some humic acid and mix it in the soil. Or possibly go by some happy frog soil and mix it in 50/50 with your leftover soil happy frog soil comes super acidic it starts around 4ph that should balance out with your super high left over soil

I wouldn't use straight after a grow get it in a pile and add nitrogen like alfalfa pellets and a watering of potassium humate... Good luck.. Much love 💚

How large is your sample? Please provide information about your measurement. First run off? mid? end? everything? Run off, especially for recycled / living soil is in my opinion not too reliable to measure. Additional: Has your soil ripened? Are you planing to? What premix? What means clean the soil from roots watered pots? How much used soil? How much casting? How much premix?
