So my tap water is at 8.0 and I want to drip line. What can I do so I don’t have to touch ever gallon of water. I will be hand watering 20% of water to soil ratio when I nute and can ph down there. If I’m wrong please inform me. I need all the help I can get. Addition info and tips will be greatly appreciated.
 
Soil is a good PH buffer but with a water PH that high, I'd make sure you amend the soil with plenty of peat moss and sulfur, both of which will serve to lower the soil PH.

I have already added 2 inches ito the top of my one gallon pots and also added sulfur at first transplant. I was going to transplant them into a 3-5 gallon pots until I get my 200 gallon pot. Should I do a 50% soil 50% peat moss base mix? Or do you know of any threads or sources I could refer to?
