Ph of water in a soil grow

I use tap water which in most cases comes out at 7.0 to 7.2 i try to water at 6.8 to 7.0 is this to high a ph for a soil grow, im using FFOF in 3gal. pots

i think you want it at 6.5 ,i think if you look online you get the recipes for household stuff that can fix p h such as vinegar(to bring it down) i cant remember of the top of my head what to use to put it back up but, if as i said you look online you'll sort it

do you have lime in your soil? if so, it doesn't matter as much as some folks think.

use fORMULEX to up ph heres link = http://www.growell.co.uk/formulex.html.. Hope This Helps

spots could be from a def. or bad ph fluctuation.. When using soil i always water til i get at least a 3rd run off.. This helps to keep salt buildup down as well as keeping the ph stable..
