Default pH Adjustment for biloyp

Based on our experience with other growers, some will add small amounts of sulfuric or phosphoric acid to bring their pH down. Vinegar might work but it is not a strong acid.

When using your pH meter, make sure you calibrate it and store the electrode in some electrode storage solution. It will maintain it's integrity over a longer period.

I am using General Hydroponics pH Down product and it is working really well. I do kep my pH meter in a solution as u sugested. Thanks for the advice , really appreciate it. Since I have brought my pH down, my lettuce is thriving, seems like lettuce likes the pH between 5-6. But my spinach seems to like pH around 6. I have learned so much doing this.
