baking soda and vinegar works.
does this not affect the plant? and what makes the pH go up and what makes it go down??
Acidity and alkalinity. Those are the two variables.Quote:

yes if your ph is, lets say an 8 and you want a 6 add vinegar, or you have an level 5 ph and want an 7 add baking soda.Quote:

Much easier to deal with....and the bottles last a long friggin time.... I still have a pH up that I bought 4 years ago....while I've gone through 3 of the pH down....Quote:

I agree with CGI that getting pH Up/Down is totally worth having, especially if the pH from your tap water is always funky, but I've used vinegar and baking soda in a pinch and they will work.
Ain't seen you around in awhile,Mr. Clandestine... How ya been?

Not bad at all, Ga! Lots of changes over the past couple of years have kept me away, but I'm trying to get back in the habit of dropping in and reminiscing with some friendly faces. :jointsmile:
Hope you've been well!
