How much do you add per tablespoon Or teaspoon in a gallon might look into it , ive heard of it multiple times alreadyI’ve always just used citric acid crystals and it’s never given me any problems
Well it’s not really a concrete amount I mix all of my nutes first and then check the ph. My waters ph is generally right at 7.0 after mixing in nutes. And if it’s at 7.0 I usually put in a literally “small pinch” of citric acid crystals and that drops it to about 6.4 to 6.6How much do you add per tablespoon Or teaspoon in a gallon might look into it , ive heard of it multiple times already
Definitely will check it out , thanks for your opinion, cheers broWell it’s not really a concrete amount I mix all of my nutes first and then check the ph.

From earth juice ? Quick question , do you use the line up of nutes from earth juice bro ?I use hibrix Molasses if I’m in a pinch to lower the ph.. + it’s good for them.
Yes earth juice molasses & No I don’t use earth juice line up.. but I am a fan of they catalyst nute. I use a variety of things that work consistently for me.From earth juice ? Quick question , do you use the line up of nutes from earth juice bro ?
I use citric acid too, but you should know, if your tap water alkalinity is high, citric acid won't maintain the ph for long-its a very weak acid. However if your alkalinity is low, or you're adjusting RO water, citric acid is great. Citric Acid is also nice because it will actually lower your PPMs due to it's reaction with the bicarbonates in your water, unlike Phosphoric acid which will raise your ppms. I use a combination of citric acid and phosphoric acid now, just to keep my ppm increase down. I mostly adjust with citric to start, maybe 2/3 the way to my target, then the last 1/3 with phosphoric. The combo keeps my PH stable for longer than citric alone. Good luck!!
I have a bottle of PH down with phosphoric acid but I decided to avoid using it in an effort to keep everything fully organic...
