Dude...4.0 is way too low. Your gonna lose that if you dont act quick. Feck, i'd give it bottled water asap and mist it. You need to get the ph up to a good 5.8 - 6.0

You have to get it up to like 5.2

seriously just added bottled water will do it. It has a ph of like 7 or somthing doesnt it? I know distilled water for sure does. This will over time raise the soil to 7. But for now it will help raise it some for you.

Theganman yo go to stater brothers and buy some baking soda to bring up the ph about 1 tsp per gallon or so will bring up the ph quite a bit and if you have to come down use regular vinegar about 1 cap to 1 gallon, good luck
