EnigmaticOne Posted April 22, 2005 Author Share Posted April 22, 2005 OT I tested the compost PH and it reads as being exactly 7. Bought some Maxicrop calcified seaweed anyway just before testing the compost, but no need to use this I suppose now. I will just treat with the roogrow. So this points at the seeds being the problem. I figured it was due to the other strain all germing ok using the same methods and compost. I looked at the cheshunt compound in the garden centre, but all the environmental warnings on the tin put me off buying that to treat the seeds first. I think I will stick with the H202. Anyways thanks for the advice. EO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer1 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Something wrong with the test I think. Are you sure the ph meter is doing its job? Allmix is usually down near ph 6.2, What is the reading of the distilled water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the PH pen calibrated today and it is spot on now. I will get some distilled water tomorrow and test it that way too. But I think I can safely say it is not lower than 6 EO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
