water pH

[dioceanna]

I realize the forum suggests pH of 6.7-6.2. Is this for soil grows (indoor)as well? I was told that was too high and it should be between 5.7-6.0. What is your thoughts? thxs

I try to keep 5.0-5.5 for my hydro and 7.0 for soil. I think soild should be from 6.5-7.0.

Yes, I try to keep mine over 6 but under 7. The plants dont seem to like anything else.

.............the sell it at fish, plant and spa stores...it's called "PH up"...and "PH down"..

dont use the spa stuff. that could be lethal on your plants. use the fish stuff or better yet, get ph up and down from a local hydro store or online dealer.
