Safe way to lower P.H?
Hey everyone,
Just want to say thanks to everyone that has provided so much great info on this site. I am currently growing 4 skunk #1 plants in soil. My P.H is sitting around 7.0 and I would like to bring it down a little. Does anyone know of any good ways to do this without hurting my girls? Thanks, KB |

Natural white vinegar is cheap and easy to get every where... just use 5-7ml per 10 liter bucket...

PH down is chemical and works fine.... but if you grow organic then go for the Natural white vinegar...

organic ph up is hydrated lime, organic ph down is white distilled vinegar. one tablespoon per gallon of water should bring the ph down one full point. hope this helps.

the soil stays around a pH of 7 - when we feed @ a pH of 6 / as the water dry's from botton to top - when it reaches the top = it has slowly given the pH drift we need / moving from a pH of 6 to a pH of 7 again
IMHO do not go up/down - find a feed level they like & stay with it - 5.8-6.2 is where I would look to find a base. I will aslo tell you; that not every plant reacts the same way to dif pH levels = ie. a pH that works great for one strain - MAY not be the best pH for the next
