General Hydroponics pH Control Kit for Hydroponics

The General Hydroponics pH Control Kit is designed specifically for maintaining the correct pH balance in hydroponic systems, whether using soilless mixtures or soil-grown plants. Proper pH balance is crucial as it influences nutrient absorption, and an imbalanced pH can lead to poor plant health and reduced yields. The kit includes the following components: – **pH UP** (potassium hydroxide) and **pH DOWN** (phosphoric acid) for adjusting pH levels in nutrient solutions to the optimal range of 5.5 to 6.5, essential for hydroponics. – A **pH Test Indicator** that allows users to determine the pH level of the solution by adding drops to the test vial filled with nutrient solution. – A **test vial** for conducting pH tests: simply fill it halfway with the nutrient solution, add three drops of the Test Indicator, and observe the colour change. For best results, make gradual adjustments using pH UP or pH DOWN and retest frequently to maintain the desired pH level. **Product Details**: – **Product Dimensions**: 2.54 x 2.54 x 2.54 cm; **Weight**: 680.39 g – **Manufacturer**: General Hydroponics – **Model Number**: HGC722080 – **ASIN**: B000BNKWZY – **Date First Available**: November 4, 2011 – **Place of Business**: Vancouver, WA, 98660 US
