My bad, I forgot pHup has stable, organic buffers that are used (egg shell, oyster shell, other sources of lime)... very cool.

Not sure how the water is in the UK, but most of the tap water here is alkaline (7.5pH or higher). So, there is more of a need for pHdown. I only use pHup to buffer my ferted water.
 
My tap water is 8.2 ph mate,low doses of my nutes is a nice ph down for me but when I use my nutes at full dose it's dropping my ph down to about 5.9 so Im just needing to bring it up to around 6.8..

LOL, mine is about 7.8-7.9. If it was just a little bit higher, I wouldn't have to buy pHup. But, like yours, it's just off enough that I have to use the pHup. :D

:howdy:red eye coop my water is 8.2 goes down just abit after 24 hours, i allways keep my PH @ 6.4 or anywere form 6.1- 6.5 i neve feed my girls @ 6.8,that after iv put me feeds in,if you are using nutes that got PH buffer in the feed,i would still only bring it back up to 6.4,maybe that why i love bio nutes as it got no buffers in it,puls i use an orgince PH down for my soil grow work fine,and i neve smell anythink but a acid smell,and anythink like this must keep safe as iv got a coulp of holes in me jeans form the use of it :peace:
