Pots are prepped to help balance soil pH. Will plant seeds in about a week

Impressions about plant

For this grow, I am using Happy Frog organic potting soil in conjunction with GH synthetic nutrients (nutes). The soil is going to be prepped in a large plastic container which I used to fill three 5 gal fabric pots each, and then mixed with pH balanced water until the soil was damp. Also the bottom of the pots will be filled with about 2 inches of perlite to help assist with drainage and prevent overwatering

The soil pH was tested prior to starting the prep work, and it clocked in very low around 4.7. The goal is to feed for a few weeks to help balance out the soil pH to ensure that the medium can provide optimal growth

I am using two grow tents..... one which was self made for seedlings/clones, and the other is a Vivosun GT 60x32x80 (5x3) which will be used for the mid-late veg/flowering phases of the grow. Each phase will outline the grow environment being used

Additional notes outlined below:

>> HF soil was slurry tested on a 1:1 ratio of soil and water. Sat for 30 hours and the soil tested at 4.7 pH / 945 PPM
>> Water used tested at 7.0 pH. Treated with pH Up until desired pH was met at 7.7 pH (Target is 6.2 pH - using higher pH water to balance soil)
>> Took three 5 gallon grow bags and added HF soil up until around 2 inches from top
>> Dumped each grow bag of soil into a large container. Mixed in pH treated water to begin prepping the soil (Activate microbes & balance soil pH)
>> Added 2 inches of perlite to bottom of bags. Then filled remainder of bag with mixed soil
>> Will check in 6-7 days prior to transplanting seedlings
