For PH Down - 1 mL/gallon of water will generally reduce your pH about 1 point. That's just a very rough estimate, but gives you a starting point. In imperial measurements, that's 0.2 tsp/gallon (1 tsp/5 gallons) will reduce the pH by 1 point. If you're regularly measuring PH Down I highly recommend using a blunt-tip syringe with mL measurements, it's much simpler because imperial measurements don't have precise enough measurements for the small amounts needed with PH Down!

Note: If you are starting with RO (reverse osmosis) or soft water, you likely need less PH Down than the specified amount; if you have very hard water you may need more!

For PH UP - PH Up is not potent stuff! It actually has a very weak effect. Compared to PH Down you will need to add much more PH Up to adjust the pH by the same amount. With PH Up, depending on how hard your water is you need to add 2-4mL/gallon of water to raise the pH 1 point. In imperial measurements that's 0.4-0.8tsp/gallon.

Tips

Be consistent in making sure pH stays in the range

You don’t need to be exact, just keep an eye on things and react if you notice the pH is getting too high or too low

Add all of your nutrients to your water first before checking and adjusting the pH. Your nutrients will affect the pH of your water so it's important they get added before making any adjustments.

No Need to Be Exact - Let pH Range Up & Down

The pH will naturally change over time, and you only need to correct it when it starts going out of the 5.5-6.5 range

Water going in should be 5.5-6.5 pH

If runoff pH is...

5.5-6.5 pH - in the right range, no changes needed.
Less than 5.5 - provide next watering at pH 6.5
More than 6.5 - provide next watering at pH 5.5
Continue this formula with each watering

The environment is at 77 degrees with 55 percent humidity.

I will add a humidifier to being it up about 10 percent.

Today is Monday March 5, 2018

Today I made up 5 gallons of water with 1 gram, 2 grams, 3 grams, 4 grams and 4.5 gram. Also added was 1 gram of cal mag pro to each gallon.

I will wait 30 minutes and then report details and values.

This is Mega crop.

This is what the products look like.

The 1 gram gallon has a pH of 6.6.
The EC is 0378
The temperature of the water is 82.4
The ppm is 0189

The 2 gram gallon has the pH of 6.3.
The EC is 0800
The temperature of the water is 71.6
The ppm is 0400

The 3 gram gallon has a pH of 6.2.
The EC is 0914
The temperature of the water is 96.8
The ppm is 0457

The 4 gram gallon has a pH of 6.0
The EC is 0934
The temperature of the water is 80.6
The ppm is 0467

The 4.5 gram gallon has a pH of 6.0
The EC is 1114
The temperature of the water is 82.4
The ppm is 0557

I need to see which way my pH my mixture will be drifting.

The seeds are now soaking in water until they sink to the bottom of the cups.
I will start at 1 gram per gallon mega crop and 1 gram per gallon cal+mag pro.

The plants are now in germination.
Now I'll make a new mixture and see how it changes, up or down and by how much over the course of 12 hours.

A few of seeds now have a small tap root showing but not long enough tonight.
Instead I will prep the pots with water.

The plants will be ready for planting in the afternoon.
