PH and temp

Dean1
Dean1started grow question 4 years ago
Does the temperature of the feed alter the ph. I made some feed a week ago ph 5.9 but had to turn radiator off in the shed because snow kept melting so feed is now 10c in stead of previous 18c but I checked ph the other day and it had gone up to 9.3 can I put feed in tent 4 heat?

Temps do affect pH but it shouldn't be that much. Water at 7 pH will have a pH of 6.14 at boiling temperatures. I would take a small sample into a warmer area and retest the pH. Most meters compensate for temp as well, so if it gives you a temperature, it probably automatically compensates. Shake up your solution very well before taking a sample. Low temps could have caused some kind of separation within the solution.
