General Hydroponics Ph Down

[Shovelhandle]

My well water has a bit of mineral content, including sulphor. The Ph is 7. I used a chemical Ph tester and found that it took about a capful/gallon of GH Ph Down to go down to 6.0. Doesn't that seem to be a lot of Ph Down?

Thanks for your feedback.

nope i use a cap and a half now to the real question....why the shit does it take 3 caps of ph up to raise one point? im thinking about bringing home some sodium hydroxide from work just to see how the ladys react.

Hmm mine takes about the same, but the ph up takes about the same as well. There's a lot of minerals in the water that act as a natural buffer.
