So when I've got big ph imbalances in a solutions, generally it's a good idea to correct it first with a known ph balance instead of using another chemical fertilizer to to correct, because it can "precipitate out" some of those molecules when their added into the solution. (probably causing some gas release also). Totally wasting the fertilizer.
Precipitates are generally only going to form in solutions that have extreme pH issues? Can you explain some of the underlying phenomenon here? This is an important subject, I think. If you've got a good grasp of the chemical reactions it's possible to determine which ones form precipitates, and which ones are safe to mix, which would seem useful, I think.
There is "excess energy" as a result of the now-incomplete, unrealized bonding at the two surfaces.
This all devolves into nucleation, and thermodynamics, surfaces, interface (matter) for the most part, I believe. Nucleaation, Ion implantaiton, supersaturations and solubility are all contributiong factor to this process to some degree also.
I would like to understand it better. The internet is a wonderful place to learn expand this understanding.
I feel like true underground home growers have the next big things.
