Hi every one , here’s a tip to save you money on PH-  With all the rain were having it’s hard to keep the PH  up.            If the PH is low, the other chemicals will not work ,

After two weeks of rain, my PH  was not even on the scale. I had to use 24lb of PH rise to get it to  7.5  – $30.00

A great way to save money is use bakeing soda ,this will increase the PH just like  PH rise and costs a lot less -almost half the price.
