Lime it.
Most acidic environments don't suddenly become more alkaline, without a reason, such as lime. I think Dolomite takes about 3 weeks to become active. If you're not in a hurry wait until about 3 weeks before you want to use your soil and see where the PH is at. Then you can choose to lime or not but with all things TLO the longer items have to break down in the soil the better it all works.

you'd be doing yourself a huge favor imo biggest thing is to use a recipe thats the most affordable as well as proven to work well.read up a small bit on super basic Tea(ACT) making,use a tote imo large enough to store soil in,35 gal er so),let it cook for two months, and its that simple.water and a tea a couple times.grows over n you got smooth organic buds."AFN smoke out" and for more involvement you can get a worm farm n harvest you own living casting for teas n spikes n top coats and compost juice for ferts and compost yer own castings as well.better grows and saves a lot of money in the long haul.Take it easy and Best of luck to ya dude.:Sharing One:

So... I have been using my soil mix for autos and transplanted mostly vegged photos along with a few foliar sprays I made and it is working beautifully for both. I though it would be too hot for my autos but its not. Yay!
