Alaska Morbloom fish emulsion added to rain water brought my ph to 2.7... ok to use? - Page 2 - Organic Soil - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

That’s a hard one to use but it does work great 0-10-10 i assume. Sometimes you don’t have to ph your water in a pure organic system, that being said I wouldn’t do it unless I knew the soil was alive. Prep for your water by brewingva tea with norebloom and an alkaline like kelp or alfalfa meal. It will raise the ph as the tea brews, or get dry ph up.

Good soils can adjust for the ph of nute soultions but id think there'd be a limit and 2.7 sounds crazy acidic man. I'd get it back up close to 6 at least good luck

Noticed at wally world today that Alaska brand has a complete nutrient line now. Grow, bloom, calmag, and micronutrient formulas as well as a ph up and down in crystal form.

i've tried and tried to like that Alaskan fish emulsion and i always end up hating everything about it

I had the exact same problem using that stuff – insanely low pH numbers that were difficult to correct. Now it’s in a bin to be returned to Lowe’s!

The Alaskan fish emulsion doesn't drop ph to bad but the Alaskan MoreBloom 10 10 drops it like a rock. Way to low, I use Potassium Bicarbonate to bring it back up to 6.4. I use morebloom as my ph down when needed.

Maybe add a drop or two of PH up.
