How to Test your Soil’s pH – Slurry Test
If I could give any advice with growing in fox form’s happy frog soil, it would be to test your soil’s ph before using it. I find it is inconsistent and a lot of problems occur when you soil is not tested and the ph is out of a comfortable grow range. This will cause lockout and without properly adjusting your soil’s ph prior to use, you can prevent your plants from growing to their capacity.
The rules are simple after you get your reading. Here is what I do when I have abnormal ph’s.
For low ph’s under 5.5, I just ph balance my feed water to 7.5 and water to slight runoff and test the ph. If the ph of the runoff is within the grow range of 5.8-6.5, I just feed using a normal ph on the next feeding. If it is still low, then on the next feeding, I repeat this process.
For pH’s above 7.5, I just ph balance my feed water to 5.5 and water to slight runoff and test the ph. If the ph of the runoff is within the grow range of 5.8-6.5, I just feed using a normal ph on the next feeding. If it is still high, then on the next feeding, I repeat this process.
