Hmmm...I wouldn't go to a larger pot just yet. You could try and mix the lime in to the top layers of the soil without going too deep and possibly damaging the roots. Might try the forum search engine and see what pops up, seems like I've read another thread or two pertaining to your situation...probably in this same subforum (Indoor Soil Cultivation), or maybe in the Pests & Problems subforum.
One more thing. I'm sure yall are familiar with the 3 in 1 meter with the light, ph, and moisture. Dealing with the moisture scale with a range of 1-3 (dry), 4-6 (moist), and 7-10 (wet) I keep it between 4-6 in the middle (moist). Is that good enough or maybe a little more water would be necessary? Also, when i do transplant it to the 12 inch pot i think it might hold 6 cups of soil seing that the 4 inch holds 2. this mix im using right now is one and a half cups of scotts moisture guard potting soil (best i can find at lowes) and half cup of sta greens vermiculite. I cant get decent soil here as far as my experience goes and home depot didnt even have anything decen. all the dro shops are in houston and my car, Im afraid wont make it that far and i need a few trips at least to keep up with the plant so im stuck in town not to metion this damn reccession and cant get a damn fast food job...its sad yes but im doing what i can do or it will never happen and college kinda prevents me from getting jobs that need 100 percent of my time. as for the dang question maybe i can use this mix for the 12 inch pot and tell me if theres anything i can do to make this mix better please let me know.
4 parts soil, 1 part vermiculite, and 1 part dolomite.
You need to get a new way to measure your ph. I think you need a permit to get anything like that with a ph of 1. I'm talking hydrochloric acid, battery acid. Theres no way it is 1, measure again.
