So this may have been covered in the past, but I am kind of looking to the boundaries of materials to use to lower pH [and to raise it as well for that matter]
One of my watering holes is probably over 8 pH [might be lower because of rain recently, but won't last as it gets hotter], so I need to drop it down just a tad.
Vinegar is an obvious solution, I even have some home-made accident blackberry vinegar, but I need to read up on concentration.
I also have access to berries like hawthorne's, huckleberrys, blackberry, all acid berries. I would make a soaked concentrated solution and just try to add that to water.
Other water solubles?
Other suggestions that are easily available?
