pH Up - Professional Hydroponic pH Adjuster

Product Overview

pH Up is a premium-grade pH adjustment solution specifically formulated for hydroponic growing systems. This concentrated alkaline solution provides precise pH control to maintain optimal nutrient uptake and plant health in soilless growing environments.

Key Benefits for Hydroponics

Optimal Nutrient Absorption Maintains the ideal pH range (5.5-6.5) for maximum nutrient bioavailability, ensuring your plants can efficiently absorb essential minerals and nutrients from your hydroponic solution.

Fast-Acting Formula Quickly raises pH levels with minimal impact on total dissolved solids (TDS), allowing for precise adjustments without disrupting your nutrient balance.

Clean & Pure Pharmaceutical-grade ingredients ensure no harmful residues or contaminants that could damage sensitive hydroponic equipment or affect plant health.

Concentrated Solution A little goes a long way - concentrated formula means fewer bottles to store and reduced cost per application.

Equipment Safe Non-corrosive formulation won't damage pumps, tubing, or reservoir materials commonly used in hydroponic systems.

How to Use

For Hydroponic Reservoirs:

1. Test Current pH: Use a digital pH meter or test strips to measure your nutrient solution's current pH level.
2. Calculate Dosage: Start with 0.5-1ml per litre of nutrient solution. For established systems, you may need more based on your baseline water pH.
3. Add Gradually: Add pH Up slowly while circulating the solution. Never add directly to concentrated areas.
4. Mix Thoroughly: Allow 15-30 minutes for complete mixing and pH stabilization.
5. Retest & Adjust: Check pH again and add more if needed. Make small adjustments to avoid overshooting your target range.
6. Monitor Regularly: Check pH daily, as nutrient uptake and plant metabolism can cause pH to drift over time.

Dosage Guidelines:

• Seedlings/Clones: Target pH 5.8-6.0
• Vegetative Growth: Target pH 5.5-6.0
• Flowering/Fruiting: Target pH 6.0-6.5

Safety & Storage

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
• Keep container tightly sealed when not in use
• Wear gloves when handling - avoid skin and eye contact
• Keep out of reach of children and pets
• Do not mix with other pH adjusters or chemicals

Why pH Matters in Hydroponics

In hydroponic systems, pH directly affects nutrient availability. When pH levels are too low (acidic) or too high (alkaline), plants cannot properly absorb nutrients even if they're present in the solution. This leads to nutrient deficiencies, stunted growth, and reduced yields.

Different nutrients are optimally available at different pH ranges:

• Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium: Best absorbed at pH 6.0-7.0
• Iron, Manganese, Zinc: Prefer slightly acidic conditions (pH 5.5-6.5)
• Calcium, Magnesium: Available across a wider range but optimal at pH 6.0-7.0

Compatible Systems

pH Up works with all hydroponic growing methods:

• Deep Water Culture (DWC)
