Soil PH to high!

[ZuuTeD614]

I bought a soil meter that tells how wet and how much ph is in my soil and my ph is at 7.3. I bought some Organic Soil Acidifier from home depot. I am growing in a 7 gallon fabric pot. How much do I use to lower my ph in soil a tad?

7.3 is fine in soil. dont stress the numbers like if you were using soilless medium or hydro.. more important to have good mineral content and microbial activity and they will take care of buffering. add some worm castings and/or beneficial bacteria.

Don't use any of that soil acidifier. If you bought one of those cheap meters with metal probes you stick in the soil throw it away.

Ok, ok. I use fox farm ocean Forrest which has worm castings in it and also once a week use Mammoth P and my nutes I use are these..

And the nutes I use have some worm castings.

I've never seen those nutrients. They look decent. I would be cautious with their use and use less than what the directions state. It looks like they both have significant amounts of blood meal which is pretty fast acting and can cause problems. If you get the "Claw" you'll know why.

Just follow the advice you were given. Dont change anything unless they look bad.
