Hopefully, you have a pH meter. Measure the pH of your water AFTER you add all of your nutrients and mix it up well. If you need to pH up or down, use an eye dropper or pipette to add DROPS not splashes at a time until you get it where you'd like it. Add say 4-6 drops and mix your water well and wait to see where the pH changes to. If it's still not where you want it, add another few drops and again, mix well and wait to see what the pH meter reads.

Add baking soda to the soil if you need to raise the pH or make the soil more alkaline. Mix 1 tbsp. of baking soda with 1 gallon of water and stir. Apply the solution to your soil.

If your plants are suffering from low ph in soil, just adjusting the ph of the water may not do. A little lime from a local nursery would bring your ph up faster. Cheers
