PH DOWN
Emerald Harvest releases PH Down, a highly concentrated pH reducer that takes care of alcidify the solution to low the pH of it. Correcting the grade of acidity of nutrient solution helps plants maximize the yields. Eases the nutrient uptake and improves growth ratio and flower production.
¿What's pH Down and why is it good for?
PH Down by Emerald Harvest is a liquid pH acifier formuled to correct the pH of the nutrient solution. This water pH acidifier gets to low the pH down of nutrient solution without interacting with other nutrients nor harming the rhizosphere
Ph Down is perfect to adjust the pH of water , in case of being necessary, once you added all nutrients and boosters if it got too high. It is specially important to check pH after adding all other products when growing in coco, or in hdyroponics, as these growing systems are specially critical.
The correction of nutrient solution's pH not only improves growth ratio and flowering performance, but it also helps avoiding lack of nutrients and increases nutrient uptake, turning into higher yields.
Add pH Down Emerald Harvest: Dose and how to use it
Ph Down is a concentrated solution to adjust pH of water to optimal values for each growing stage. In case of cannabis, the optimal pH range of nutrient solution is between 5,8 and 6,2. Depending on the stage the plants are (growing or flowering) we should adjust the values closer to 5,8 or closer to 6,2.
The process to use the pH Down is easy, once you added all products to your nutrient solution you should check the pH to know if and how much has to be the pH modified to balance it and turn it optimal.
About the dose of PH Down needed to low down the pH, it is important for you to understand that more salty the nutrient solution is more pH Down will be needed to low the Ph. So, lower the amount of nutrients dissolved in water less Ph Down will be needed to adjust the pH of the nutrient solution.
Reduce the PH of water with PH Down step by step
PH Down is a product extremelly corrosive, so NEVER touch the liquid with your fingers. It should never be mixed with PH Up with out dilluting them in water.
Once all nutrients and boosters of your receipe are added to water check the pH of the nutrient solution. If the pH is higher than 6,2 then you should add some drops of PH Down and stir the solution.
After 30 seconds check again the pH of the solution. If the pH persists over optimal value then add some drops more of PH down and stir again. If the solution has reached the desired value of Ph then you can proceed watering.
Characteristics of PH Down Emerald Harvest and composition

PH Down final reviews and its price
In this case, as it happens in many others, it is difficult to quantify the pros and cons of the product. Basically in this case we can explain the need of using a Ph lower when growing, and about the concentration of this acid.
The importance of a pH down is based in the fact thatin many cases, the water used and the amount and composition of nutrients can cause a too high pH value for plants (specially when working with organic nutes). Adjust this pH to optimal values can get much differences in nutrient uptake capacity, and so on the growth ratio and final yields.
In terms of quality, pH correctors are very similar, so the only factor we can value is frequently the product concentration. Obviously if the price per liter of the pH reducer is the same (or similar) and the product is more concentrated than competitor's, it's worth choosing it.
In case of Emerald Harvest PH Down we find a powerful and concentrated acid, that needs very low amounts to quickly modify the pH of the nutrient solution. Another detail to value of a pH corrector is that once the pH is modified, we need this value to persist (some growers use lemon juice or other similar products to modify the pH, but this only gets modified for few minutes being totally useless).
Summing up, Emerald Harvest PH Down is a good ally, specially due its high concentration and average price (has a higher cost per liter compared with other brands, but it is way more concentrated so you can prepare many more liters of nutrient solution with it). This product has all our approval about how it works. With PH Down Emerald Harvest you can get 100% satisfactory results.
