Question is what now.... I have some Hydro Lime in a small bottle I have Dolomite lime ...crushed oyster shell etc....What do I use to bring up from 5.5 to 6.5.....
Don't mess with it. 5.5 - even 5.0 - is fine.

The reason for my question is that pH over 7.5 or so Mg uptake becomes problematic. So that's not your problem. Honestly, I'd wait until the plants start to show some evidence that they need a nutrient before dumping it on them "just in case".
