hi guys i need some help and it would be highly appreciated, my soil is way too acidic and i need some cheap alternatives for ph up and ph down, any idea or has anyone been using any good techniques as ive heard white vinegar works for ph down but i dont know the dosage levels or nout. any help would be great thanks peace out
Vinegar works well and also has minor nutrients. Also lemon juice works well, and has some vitamin c, and probably other terpenes and flavanoids, that benefit plants. Baking soda is a great ph up but can cause salt buildup. I like plain rolaids. They are high in calcium which is great for fruit/flower production. Get a ph meter from walmart for like 6 bucks. And add a little lemon juice or rolaids, and test, and just keep going will minimal ph additives until your at 6.8 or near it.
Also if you cannot get a ph meter, you can make one out of red cabbage. Simply get a head and chop it up and boil it down. Search for this method online and the color scale you need to measure with it. Lamp.
Soil right? Hydro then shoot for 5.5.
