Greetings magic makers

The soil in the country where I m harvesting indoor is quite acid for my roots, after do the soil ph test using distilled water (7.0 ph) my ph test soil results were 5.12 and that is the cause of many deficiencies and toxicity on my plants (pics attached)

2 days ago I used dolomite lime 1 tsp x 4 lts water before to feed them and they have showed a minimal recovery.

1.I wondering there is something else that you growers recommend that I should do in my case?
2. or just wait would be the best?

strains
-Ice
-Silver haze
-Kali mist
-B-52

Humidity temp, sleeping cycles , C02, ppm nutrients , water ph (everything good)
30 days in flowering room until now

The lime will need some time to react as buffer. Id use a little more finely ground dolomite lime, like 1 tsp pr pot, spread on top of the soil. Water with pH 7.5 water after that for 1-2 waterings, depending on readings.
But then again, dont take my word for it :weed:

Wood ashes mixed in water will raise the pH quicker than lime. I'm not sure how much to add but google will know.

Use the dolomite, if you have never used it, do not fuck with hydrated lime. Or, learn from experience, your call.

However, I would still add some epsom salts with the dolomite. I've found that the Mg is slower to release than the Ca, but just one dose of epsom's is all that's needed.
