Possible pH issues transplanting rockwool into soil

I know rockwool has high pH so it needs to be watered with slightly acidic pH food solution

My question is when I transplant clones that are in rockwool into soil, am I gonna face some problems, cuz plants in soil should be watered with higher pH water... and basically:

if I water with pH good for the rockwool I am gonna make the soil too acidic

if I water with pH good for the soil, the pH of the rockwool and the roots that are inside will have much higher pH

Rockwool is for Hydro, Peat Pellets are for Soil and will clone just the same with no PH worries.

You can treat it just like soil.

stick the rockwool in the soil and dont worry about it...the rockwool takes on the ph of your nute mix.....
