Hi
I have RQS Sweet Skunk auto plant that is 8 weeks old (4 weeks flowering)
and since week or so I have (probably) high ph caused K lockouts.
Soil is mix of rich orgainc soil (composted over a month),
some regular flower soil (ph6), some perlite and coco.
Also dolomite lime was mixed in.
Some time ago it was bit top-dressed with bit of some organic
fetilizer (smells like manure-based, 6-5-10).
I'm feeding every 2-3 days with tap water phed down by adding 2ml of
apple cider vinegar/1l to get ph close to 6, usually with some
molasses added (but lately just plain phed water).
And - it seems generous watering lowers ph to desired level,
but before next watering it gets up again.
I don't want to water more frequently (I think already bit
overwatered) - what could I do to lower ph more stabily?
For going more alkaline I'd top-dress with dolomite lime, but to
lower ph? I think some sour compost tea might help, but never tried
that. Other ideas - I have peat moss (ph4), I have blood meal, maybe
some dried manure tea?
