chuey316 252 43 Mar 25, 2021 #1 I ran my tap water through 2 brita filters and adjust my ph to 6.7 with apple cider vinegar. When testing my ph after the water has sat for a bit, the water fresh from the jug was 6.3, and the water I let set out was 7.3. My question is which is more important, the ph at the time of watering, or what it will drift up to once it interacts with the oxygen in the soil?
