Terra Aquatica pH+ Up 500 ml - (multilingual label including DE)

This solution is made using potassium hydroxide and potassium carbonate. Use it when the pH of the nutrient solution is low to raise the pH to the correct level.

For all cultivation methods: hydroponics and soil

This new pH control concept allows you to adjust the pH value, especially for fast-growing plants.

As growers, we always have a list of things we want to make our lives easier. At the top of the list is a pH buffer that would work so well that we could go on vacation for two weeks and when we return, the pH in the nutrient solution would still be the same. The problem is that this is only possible when the nutrients are weak, there is not much activity in the solvent, and your plants are growing at an average rate.

When the growth is fast and a large amount of ions are removed, as well as complex interactions occur in the solution, such stability is unthinkable. But today we are no longer helpless. Today we can achieve satisfactory stability and additional benefits.

A good pH control solution is one where you only adjust the pH once, when you start the system. While we don't claim that we have achieved exactly that, and not in every situation and with every nutrient, in terms of pH control, we have tried using pH Down in our greenhouses in combination with Flora Series and Mineral Magic foods, plant growth has continued for several weeks without the need for pH adjustment. In some smaller systems, the pH drops slightly, but after adding a small amount of pH Up, it rises back to the desired level. In other cases, the pH stays very close to the almost ideal value of 6.0.

The ideal pH is actually the most important thing. A high pH promotes the uptake of cations and a low pH promotes the uptake of anions. So there are compromises to be made when choosing the pH. Usually a safe condition with values ​​between 5.5 and 6.5 is recommended. We recommend sticking to the lower value, i.e. from 5.5 to 6.2.

As for increasing the pH in the solution, this is especially useful for growers who use osmosis or demineralized water. This new version contains silica, which improves the plant environment. A lack of silica can be a limiting factor in hydroponics. This is because it is poorly soluble, so it is difficult to add enough of it to the solution. That is why we add it to our products whenever possible.
