Ph Level Adjustment

Some say you can use vinegar. Does it do the same trick as a Ph lowerer you get at the store? I want to do this right. What should i get?

Anyone know if the Ph adjuster for pools and spas is ok? Im about to go to the store i need an answer!

Be a shame to hurt those plants trying to spend less than $14.00 for a gallon. That gallon should last for quite some time. While your there get a ph test kit at least, meter would be even better. Welcome to the forum.

I ended up going to a fish store and getting Ph down for $4 . I have an electronic Ph tester and i made sure it was 6.6. I have another question. Some of my leaves are getting wavy on my bigger plants. What does this mean? You can kind of see in picture #1.

it means it has room to grow without breaking the leaf.

Ok, is this good or bad?

No, pool Ph down is not a good idea.

I think pool and aquarium products have some sodium in them, and that will kill your plants.

Check the ingredients.
