pH is a fundamental factor when it comes to achieving adequate nutrition for plants. The nutrient solution must be in the proper pH range to allow plants to assimilate nutrients efficiently. Nitric acid is one of the most used products to correct the pH of the nutrient solution, but care must be taken when handling it as it can cause serious burns.
When using organic stimulators, it is necessary to correct the pH of the nutrient solution . This is because the acids present in these products can eliminate important characteristics of the stimulators. It is advisable to correct the pH after adding chemical fertilizers and add stimulators with the corrected pH.
BAC pH down and pH up are solutions used to remove bicarbonate from water with high hardness. To prepare the solution, you must add pH down until you reach pH 5.2 and let the acid react with the bicarbonate. The water will then drop to pH 3. With pH up, the pH can be raised to the appropriate level depending on the substrate used and whether the fertilizer is organic or mineral. It is important to consult the pH tables to achieve the best results.
BAC's pH Up is an organic pH corrective solution for growing in soil, coconut fiber or hydroponic media. pH is an important measure that determines the level of acidity or alkalinity of a solution, such as irrigation water with or without fertilizers and/or additives. It is necessary to maintain the pH within ranges that allow plants to assimilate nutrients without problems. The pH must be regulated after adding chemical fertilizers and then additives , stimulators and enhancers to achieve the best results.
It is important to stir the contents of the container very well before using the nitric acid. It should be applied in small doses in the nutrient solution or irrigation water, wait for the pH to stabilize and check that the desired level has been achieved. It can be used during the growth and flowering period. If the pH is not in the appropriate range, plants will have difficulty assimilating nutrients , which makes them more prone to attack by diseases and pests, and their leaves, stems and flowers will show a stunted appearance.
In summary, nitric acid is a useful product to correct the pH of the nutrient solution in plant cultivation, but it must be handled carefully to avoid burns. It is necessary
