    Dolomite lime.

    Hey guys. Showing signs of calcium deficiency. Don't have any cal/mag supplement. Is it ok to top dress with dolomite lime in soil? Worried about pH issues when watering.

    It will raise your ph ....are you going try mixing the dolomite in the water first... it’s a good buffer material for ph . Maybe try letting the water sit in with the dolomite, then check ph and water the plant afterwards

      Have eggs? 12 washed egg shells boiled in water, makes 1 gallon. (add 1 Tbsp Epson Salt to make cal/mag)

        Thanks guys. Really appreciate your time. Just trying to save a trip to the grow shop. Wasn't expecting this three weeks into ffof. Maybe nitrogen but not calcium. Ph'd water only so far. Must be time. Thanks again.

          Try the Epsom salts works wonders I use it a lot on my out door plants. Won't burn like lime

        Don't really know how to use them. Guess I need to read some more of the tutorials. Epsom salt and black strap molasses are new to me.

          1 tablespoon per gallon of water on both ES and BSM

          Myself I go sparingly with the ES, the BSM I do (no more than) every other watering when in flower.
