How much peat's in your mix? What is the mix? Think you'll be fine on the lime with the oyster shell, and whatever else you added. Peat will leach tannins. I never check run off.Alright guys have a issue, my soil run off is near 4, its newly made soil and it is for vegging plants, should I take plants out and redo soil?

This is in a peat moss mix, I just read that you want to add 1-1.5 cups per 5 gallons? If this is correct then im way off. I may be using a 1/3 per 5 gallon.

If you have *good* homemade vermicompost you could probably get away with a generous top-dress of just that. If not, you can go to Home Depot and pick up some calcium carbonate (Lily Miller Sweet) and some garden gypsum. Then add equal parts of both to ewc or soil and top dress. This will take a bit to correct itself doing it that way. In the interim you could add some calmag at 5-10ml per gallon to straighten it out some as well. I went too light on liming agents on my first batches of soil too. The girls looked a little neglected for a while but the crops turned out nice in the end.
Is there anything EWC CAN"T do?! I am amazed over and over again. Take St0w's advice May. EWC does seem to work for everything. It is pure health shat out by worms.
Are you going by the Rev's mix? It does call for adding a high amount of lime. I cooked my mix for 100+ days. When I was mixing things together I had to read it a few times to believe it.
