i put 3 drops ph down into a 2L res of advanced nutrients ph perfect sensi grow A/B, voodoo juice, and b-52 ... my ph reading didnt go down ... so i was wondering ... is it not possible to tweak the ph with advanced nutrients ph perfect solutions? i need to lower the ph because im getting a high runoff ph and its effecting my plants due to ph uptake problems ... or so i think ... the ph of the solution after adding nutes is 6.7 ... id like it at 6 .... thanks for any advice!

thats impossible.
get a litre of water and see how many drops it takes to drop one full ph, if it takes 4 drops then it will take 8 to drop in 2 litre.
now pour that water away.


now add the 8 drops ph solution to your nutrient solution to drop one ph at a time. 4 drops for half a ph etc.

always lift your water with a jug and pour it back in to agitate it, do not stir it, and always wait a minute for the solution to stabilise before you retest.

this will add oxygen to your nutrient solution at the same time as mixing it.
