Regarding your ""waiting for my ph+ to arrive," why wait? Sodium bicarbonate (common baking soda) is among, if not is, the best(???) to use to boost pH, is super-cheap and infinitely available (any food or drug store). You may even have some on a shelf in your kitchen. And very little is generally needed to do the job.
Commercial pH boosters will generally contain potassium hydroxide and maybe carbonate. These will add some potassium (K) to your feed. Some cal-mag or other supplements you have on hand with higher pH might also be used to boost pH.
Otherwise, perhaps look for the root cause. What makes your feed water so acidic (presuming your pH device is properly working and calibrated)? I your water is that bad, go to RO or rain water. If some feed or supplement is doing it, see if you can replace or do without that.
