Yup.

You can use anything that lowers or raises PH, including household items.
And when you go to buy more and compare value, remember that there are many strengths of PH up and down. With one you might need 2 drops, and with another 2 teaspoons.
Baking soda will work well for PH up
and Lemon juice (teaspoon a gallon) is recommended for lowering PH.

that was the avatar of a grower friend of ours, who died a few months ago ... 'Needles' was a Texas good old boy, that loved growing his White Rhino, and Willie Nelsons ... sounded like he went peacefully, too :thumbsup:Quote:

I'd like to have the definitive answer on baking soda, I was using it for a short time, with great results, mush easier than my 'pH UP' liquid drops ... but heard of possible 'salts buildup' ... never did find out for sure, though ... :smokin:
That's great to know. I just bought 20 bucks worth of pH UP and Down, while having baking soda and lemon juice around the house, but since I balanced out my pH my seedlings have literally taken off.
