Ph?

[Satyaban]

The damned thing would not stop moving long enough to read it when I stuck it in water, numbers would bounce around and stop at all zeros. To hell with it, I am just going to put lemon juice in my tap, maybe 3 teaspoons for every 5 gallons of water, otherwise I am going to do nothing.

The tap water where I live:

How do we measure pH?

pH is measured with a probe that is lowered by staff or volunteers into the water at each station location. pH readings are recorded half-way between the water’s surface and the river bottom. We assess the pH data using the State of XXXs instantaneous numeric threshold range of 6.5 – 8.5 (SU pH), which ensures the protection of the ecological health of animal and plant populations in the State’s streams and rivers from harmful acidic or basic pH conditions.

What I didn't include is that this water is collected into reservoirs. I am going to add lemon juice to my water just to be safe.
I just made a short visit to my basement and the plants are literally exploding with growth so something is working right. I will put new photos up in the Runts thread.
