My pH is a little high and in my nute solution and I want to try and lower it naturally. I have read that it is ok to add a bit of citric acid to the mix or white vinegar to lower your solution, and baking soda to raise it. I understand that these organic ingredients don't have any sort of pH buffer, and stand a chance of the solution to revert back to it's old pH, but what if the actual nute solution did contain a pH buffer to maintain the level? I am using maxigrow by general hydroponics which does indeed contain a buffer. Does anyone know if it will maintain the level? Or if there will be any negative effects adding very small amounts of natural acids. Thanks in advance.
