Ok so i got it figured out.. about 1/4 lemon juice brings a gallon of tap water from 7.4 to 6.3. Perfect..
I think pH up and down are organic by default because it is natural, but I could be wrong. Also, 6.3 is pretty high for your pH. Optimal pH is around 5.7 or so. I like to keep mine right around 5.8. Using lemon juice is going to get expensive fast.
I guess I should have mentioned I grow in Soil... 6.1-6.3 is perfect for soil..
Oh haha, my bad! :jointsmile:
i guess if one was growing in the ground you could lay out lemon around the garden and water with a sprinkler, thoughts on that
