I finally got a PH and TDS meters. I knew my Ph was a bit low from the pool kit tester I had before that wasn't lower then 6.8 so i couldn't see how low it was... SO I set my water at PH 7.02 to raise it a bit.. I flushed them quite a bit...

Now I measure my run off water and it's like 6.0

that must mean my soil is like 5.6-5.8 maybe lower since the 7.0 would raise the soil PH a bit..

right???


Now I can't get it to raise up.. I want it closer to 6.5 - 6.8... I tried PH 9.0 too raise one of them and I couldn't get the run off to go any higher then 6.4ish and I don't want to go too high with the water PH...

I'f I water in some dolemite lime will it help regulate the PH??

And do I need to keep watering with a high PH to bring the soil PH up????

Any help would be appreciated..
I may just grab some lime asap and try it.. I should have added it in the first place..
