Roots organics soil, low PH?

has anyone noticed this soil having a low runoff ph? how much dolomite per gallon should i add to level it out and how long will it take? should i just mix the dolomite in and let it sit or do i need to wet it or something? i dont know exact PH readings ive got the cheaper one that has the chemical drops.

thanks everyone!

no idea on the numbers i just know its low because of the color of the run off when i use ph test kit. yea im using the K.I.S.S fertilizer (maxi bloom) and im PH upping it until its a bit high so maybe my soil will balance in the middle. i recently top dressed with 1 tbsp of dolomite lime. hopefully that will hell stabilize it

i never used that soil before,hoping some roots organic users will chime in....my question is how long have you been trying to mak it go uo,and i can identify the colors proably,cuz i use that too.just try top keep ph within there usal limits.sounds lik ur using two methods of ph uping at same time...maybe u tried the uping the maxiblloom first? and how many times did u use the maxibloom,before u water? got any ph colors for that type of water ur using?also not a maxibloom user..not sure how u approached it?it sounds lik you know wat to do,to adjust. think you will be fine..peace mm/
