Vinegar; When I experimented with Vinegar; My conclusion was that is was unstable as a ph buffer, constantly needing adjustment. After a while I feel you are hurting the plants with all that vinegar.
i tried lime and had some problems with that too but not sure what else may have been going on. totally agree about vinegar had nothing but problems never mind its kind high in sodium also.
i got some good ph up and down now so i should be able to get it stabilized hopefully. im also going to try to rework the pot its in by cutting out sections on the sides and gluing mesh over it so the roots get more air.
