PH'ing water

WHy is it SO FUCKING HARD!?!? (that is what she said i know i know..) but seriously.. why does PH tip like a stack of books. the closer you are to neutral. its either 3.4 or something acidic or freakin 10 + i can NEVER get it to 5.0 . 5.5 or 6.0 what am i doing wrong? i add little drops at a time and stir it with my drill and concrete stirrir attachment.. then after one drop up or down.. it will JUMP. im so freakin frustrated.. i gotta take 40-60 clones from my buddy tonigh in about an hour and they need 5.5 PH water for rockwool starter cubes..


help?

It is frustrating at times and takes a while to get it "just right". PH is one of those things Ive never been overly concerned about but I have dealt with it in the past and found it not worth the hassle.

but cant it make or break your grow in Hydroponic systems like Aero DWC aqua-mist style grows? if not , i wouldn't be messing with it at all.

I have the same problem with adjusting my ph sometimes, it seems like 1 tiny drop can lower it tremendesly, then add up and it goes too much, back and forth. Ive found sometimes putting a bit of water in the dropper and then putting the up or down in and THEN just using a drop of the diluted adjuster helps a bit.

@rollandtoke: You dont maintain ph at all? What kind of results? Im a new grower (in my 1st now) and find ph adjusting a hassle sometimes.

oh yea...Im using GH PH CONTROLE KIT with ph up/down
