I obviously understand that ph down lowers my water ph but how does a couple drops disperse within 5 gallons of water so all the waters ph is lowered?
how does ph down work?

I never thought of vinegar as a substitute for ph down. Thanks for the extra information!i suppose it could get more scientiffic molecules n all that shit but on the hole lower ph = more acidic higher than 7 alkaline 7 ph neutral thats why some people use vinegar for ph down in organics acidic like cider vinegar n stuff

The pH scale has to do with the ratio between H+ and OH-
H+ is the Hydrogen ion
OH- is the Hydroxide ion
The more H+ in solution, the more acidic it is.
The more OH- in solution, the more basic it is.
If the ratio of H+ to OH- is the same, then the solution is considered neutral.
