Description
Emerald Harvest pH Adjuster is a concentrated solution, available as pH Up (alkaline) and pH Down (acidic), designed to fine-tune nutrient solution pH in hydroponics for optimal nutrient absorption, typically targeting the “sweet spot” of 5.8 – 6.3 for high-value plants, preventing nutrient lockout and supporting healthy growth, even though their core nutrients are already buffered. They are essential when mixing external additives or using certain substrates like coco coir that can alter pH levels.Emerald Harvest Ph Adjuster can get you into the “sweet spot”. The best range for hydroponically grown cannabis plants is pH 5.8 to 6.3, although you’ll often see that expressed as 5.5 to 6.5 to give a wider margin for measurement. This range is a kind of compromise among the various optimal pH ranges of all the essential plant nutrients, ensuring that plants absorb at least the minimum.
In gardening, pH is the measure of soil acidity or alkalinity, crucial because it dictates nutrient availability for plants; on a 0 – 14 scale, 7 is neutral, below 7 is acidic, and above 7 is alkaline, with most plants thriving in slightly acidic soil (pH 6.0 – 7.0) as incorrect pH locks nutrients, causing deficiency symptoms like yellowing leaves and poor growth.
Key Aspects of Soil pH in Gardening:
- The Scale: pH 0 – 14, with 7 being neutral.
- Acidic Soil: Below 7 (e.g., pH 4 – 6.5).
- Alkaline Soil (Basic): Above 7 (e.g., pH 7.5 – 9).
- Why It Matters: It controls how well nutrients (like iron, phosphorus, potassium) dissolve and become available for plant roots to absorb.
- Nutrient Lock-Up: If pH is too high or low, essential nutrients get locked up, starving the plant even if fertilizer is present.
- Acid-Loving Plants: Some, like blueberries and azaleas, need acidic soil (pH 4.5 – 5.5).
- Testing: Use kits or meters to find your soil’s pH and choose plants that suit it, or amend the soil (e.g., add sulfur to lower pH).
