Lower pH in your Pond
To lower Ph use vinegar, a gallon or so per 2000 gallons, then test. This will not lower your pH for good if you have concrete leaching into the water. Test and if necessary, repeat weekly.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been looking for information on how much of a household substance to use to raise or lower the pond pH. All I have been able to find is buy this chemical, or that chemical.
Thank you.
