Anything below 7 is acidic.
Anything above 7 is alkaline.
6.2 - 6.8 is pretty much where I keep mine.
Check the date of the thread guy... lolRaising soil pH: (to make it more alkaline) It is generally easier to make soil mixes more alkaline than it is to make them more acidic. The addition of dolomite lime, hardwood ash, bone meal, crushed marble, or crushed oyster shells will help to raise the soil pH.
Lowering soil pH: (to make it more acidic) If your soil needs to be more acidic, sawdust, composted leaves, wood chips, cottonseed meal, leaf mold and especially peat moss, will lower the soil pH.

So if you buy autofems is PH'ing not required.Yes, very true, they grow anywhere. It just helps more if you do it properly. Ph'ing the soil will increase your likelyhood of getting a female plant as they prefer less acidic soil to the males. Also your yield will be better and your plant is less likely to die. Just ask some advice in your local grow shop on using the kit. You can buy digital testers which are probably the best, but you can buy tester kits for a fiver (about $7.50).
I’m growing organically with bio bizz soil and nutes. Should I be mixing the nutes and water and then adjusting the ph accordingly?Anything below 7 is acidic.
