Alternative PH Up?

Currently growing in soil, farm farm ocean forest with a COB light setup.

I'm using Earth Juice Grow, Catalyst, Cal Mag, and PH Up. I started getting random spots of yellow on leaves, hence the Cal Mag.

My water comes in at about 7.5-8 PH.

By the time I mix everything up, I'm at 5.0 PH

Are there other additives I can use that are beneficial to bring the PH Up without using PH Up?

If you use this you might not need as much cal mag:

I heard this puts a lot of sodium in your mix, and this isn't good. Good in a pinch, not for a daily dosage

It only took a little amount of baking soda to raise your ph. If you wanna know if it give too much sodium just check with a ppm/ec pen how much it raise your ppm up. When i was playing with ph i did it every watering and gave me no probs.


Peace

I'll keep that in mind, I need a ppm meter.
