Papa_Tanswered grow question 4y ago Ummmm Iām not exactly sure what the question is. PH buffering solution doesnāt make a product work better or not work. It just adjusts PH range and thatās it.
I make my mix and I adjust. If it needs PH up I use that. If it needs PH down I use that.
But to say clone x success is tied to using PH up isnāt really a thing in my book. It worked well because you adjusted your PH to the proper range. Which is what youāre supposed to do at any stage.
Iām sorry I donāt really understand what your question is or what you want us to reply to this.
Feel free to DM me to clarify what it is you mean.
Side note: I used to use RO but I donāt anymore. You canāt adjust PH in straight RO. Thereās nothing in the water for the test pen to properly function and the tester just drifts forever.
RO caused me more headaches than it was worth. Plus my tap water comes out at 62-74 PPM so itās pretty clean.
Anyway good luck with your grow! š¤
