I had bought a liquid PH kit that came with 2 small bottles of DOWN and UP. I literally used almost 70% of the PH DOWN just to get two 5 gallon reservoirs (buckets) to 5.8-6.0 PH which I had only put roughly 3 gallons of 7.6 PH water in each reservoir.
For 1 gallon of the liquid PH DOWN is $36 and I still don't think it would be quite enough and seems a bit expensive. However I come across 1 LB of NATURAL ph DOWN POWDER HYDROPONIC CITRIC ACID for only $10. Would I get more for my money out of the 1LB of powder or is there benefits to using the liquid version? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
