Dosage of powdered dolomite.

Can someone tell the correct dosage for 3gal pots. I'm working with foxfarm soil with a mix of perlite and vermiculite.

3 tsp- 1 tsp per gallon

I use 1 tsp per gallon of soil. Doesn't FF already have some lime in it?

Heh.. I toss in a small handful for 3 gallons and never worry about it.

Too much of course is a bad thing in 'theory' ....but in truth the plant will be chopped long before 'too much' lime would become an issue...

thanks all, i have no clue but my ph is 4.5-4 so i gotta raise ASAP! i have some trans-siberian autoflowering flowerin right now

Should i dissolve the powdered dolomite lime in hot water before putting it in my watering solution?

Top dress and work in with a fork.

Top dress?

Sprinkle it on top of the soil if already potted. If mixing soil just throw it in.
