Thanks DC! But please, I don't advise that anyone feed their plants 10g/gallon of MegaCrop .

One would think it would be possible to test the theory by just growing a couple of clones from the same mother, in the same soil, same tent, except PH one and not the other? Some people are bored, and have no life, and might be up for doing such an experiment. Just saying.
I’ll contact Shiv Reddy at Sungro Horticulture
I'm curious to what pH the Sunshine Mix is buffered to.
This ^But you have to maintain ‘pH of the soil mix’.
LOL!Part of it is due to lack of knowledge.
What is PH and why does it change over time?
Great test, man.
Now I have a 64k question to everybody? What is PH and why does it change over time?
My understanding is by enhancing the buffering capacity of the soil, pre grow, with lime/limestone powder and that this might need replenishing over time, depending on what frets are added and what is grown in it. That’s why the dude said to you that one grow cycle would not interfere with the soil buffering capability.
I'm not sure it's been answered here because it's not the intent of the thread, but there are ways of modifying the pH of an existing peat/soil based substrate that involve soaking it in a solution of something that will raise/lower it. Since I start with new ProMix HP almost every time I haven't had to deal with it, but I know that @Virgin ground needed to raise hers on her last grow, so perhaps she can speak to that.“But you have to maintain ‘pH of the soil mix’.”
Ok I didn’t want to wear out my welcome with the PH guy, but the next logical question is- how?
Has this already been covered? I haven’t read 95% of the thread.
7.4 is high if you are slurry testing your medium. It's not high if you're watering a buffered medium.7 is neutral so 7.4 is not high.
Correct?
