Thanks Denial

Yeah, I was figuring it was something along those lines.. i;m pretty sure its a ph problem, and its not really destroying them overnight, so i know its not *too* bad so i;m not really obsessing over it yet. Unfortunatly I just can;t tell until my ph meter shows up, but i think if it doesn;t tomorrow, I'll probably cave in and buy some test stripes so i;m at least not flying blind... i;m not gunna fly blind with adding ph up/down lol.

I actually didn;t know there were different types of ph up/down solutions, so that is very useful information :thumbsup:

I suppose my next problem is where to actually get the solutions from... I have looked in every garden centre i've been in locally and haven;t seen anything... one of them had a ph downer I think, but it was being marketted for outdoor water gardens... like backyard ponds and stuff.

There is a hydro store near me that i;m sure carries it... i just haven;t actually ventured into it yet, it doesn;t exactly look like the kind of place that gets alot of traffic, and i;m sure the second i walk in i;m going to have a sales person jump on me, and I don;t really want to walk into that situation completely uninformed and having no clue what i;m talking about lol... i;m sure that'll make it obvious that i;m up to something a little.... sketchy... lets say.

I suppose i could order it online as well, but i'd rather not have to wait for mail.
