Really, if it is on they way...wait. I used the baking soda, and hated it. Boy , I just went through all this, and it feels like a flashback !Those soil testers are crap, so I wouldn't take your measurement as the holy grail. If you need to water, you could go buy distilled water -we know the ph is 7 for this, BUT your water is 7.2, which is VERY close and you can just use that-...water your plant, then ck the runoff ph with your new meter. Then you will know your true ph of your soil.

Then you can see if you really indeed have anymore problems. You can always flush (water plant with three times it's container size, til runoff is clear) well instead of using the ph up if you are in a complete hurry! Your tap is almost perfect!

Let us know if your soil is in fact that low, before you do anything crazy...lol
