Completely unrelated, but I thought your profile picture was a security camera this whole time. Carry on.

I think i'll leave it in.

“SOIL” consists of (rock, gravel) sand, silt, clay and organic matter. In AGRICULTURE we lime fields to rise pH and also provide source of Ca in long term (breakdown 2 years). You are growing wheat or whatever its just fine next year you will grow in the same soil so you lime it accordingly to your crop demands. In HORTICULTURE we grow mostly in soilless, your pH range for “soil” is no longer valid there! You are not using that mix for years like soil on your field. I am not growing in soil and 95% people growing indoor neither. This is where the people start to chase nonsense pH numbers and blame it for their own errors.![]()
How to fix Cannabis Iron Deficiency (Fe) Pics & Symptoms
Problem: A cannabis iron deficiency causes bright yellow leaves on new growth. This deficiency is usually caused by problems with pH.www.growweedeasy.com
Thats the reason to avoid 7 when you want to recycle the soil.
... and:
now it's gettin' interesting... c'mon teach me some....
That links goes to: https://www.growweedeasy.com/ph#common-pH-problems
Theres a note:
Yeah HANDFUL is not recommended in the middle of the grow.... thats overkill, lol!
I note from my evident experience: "Some soil growers will add a gentle amount of dolomite lime powder during the grow, to simply adjust the PH if it dropped too low. This method is recommend in favor of adding Hydroxides of any kind, wether it be organic or inorganic."
They go on:
but how now, whats your solution, teeeeeeach me finally.....following the link.
That link then states:
So H+ and OH- is your solution, teacher?....![]()
There you have it again... a "noob" posting for growweeedeasy, leading other noobs, having no clue, just tryin' what everybody keeps trying, while the soil-pH does not obey, haha.
Man "I = groweedeasy"... who are you?"NO WAY you did learn "ALL"!
The best method i've tried is what i noted above, adding gentle amounts of lime.
Try it! It just works with instant gratification. Soil obeys!
Gimme the bible, i bring an oath!

In case you don't know rock is stone... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_(geology)“SOIL” consists of (rock
Dolomite is a type of limestone
But why? https://www.growertalks.com/Article/?articleid=25028In HORTICULTURE we grow mostly in soilless,
So the problem is the consumption... you mess up the soil and throw it away.... YES, thats what most growers do no matter if homegrower or professional-large-scale grower.The current projected volume of substrates consumed globally in 2019 is estimated to be 65 to 70 million cubic meters (m3). These estimates are difficult to accurately project due to the lack of requirements or standardization for reporting volumes and total sales of substrate materials by the manufacturers.
If you think that is true, that's stupid. In fact most indoor growers use soil.... I have proof:I am not growing in soil and 95% people growing indoor neither.
Thats more than half a BILLION US-gallons of soil... ANNUAL CONSUMPTION!The current projected volume of substrates consumed globally in 2019 is estimated to be 65 to 70 million cubic meters (m3).
Yes I just called it according to its fraction and put them both into the columns to make it clear they belong together but they do not determine the soil texture…In case you don't know rock is stone...
edit: this is ridiculous, thread went shit I should left. Sorry to OP hopefully you will handle your issues well.
In a landscape where limestone sits underneath the soil, water from rainfall collects in cracks in the stone. These cracks are called joints. Slowly, as the limestone dissolves and is carried away, the joints widen until the ground above them becomes unstable and collapses. The collapse often happens very suddenly and without very much warning. Water collects in these collapsed sections, forming sinkholes.
