how well does this product work on reducing the ph in soil

It does reduce soil pH, however you should not use it on a vegetable garden. The combination of aluminum and low pH can create a toxic environment for plants as aluminum is much more readily available to plants at a low pH. If you are using it on trees or shrubs, there should be no problem.

I have no idea..i used it in my pool and it worked great..cheap alternative to ph reducer..when i think they are the same product..either way it works ..but you better find out if the state you live in is run by the progressive liberal..they have outlawed it here in oregon..we cant buy it anywhere here..its against the law..were to stupid ..and we WERE a farming state..look to agenda 21 for why..good luck.

Yeah it is green also but I have had great success with it. So long as you adjust your PH it work great. Depending on what your growing.

sorry, i can't help you with the chemical composition. I live on the West Coast near Washington and the water here is almost perfect at 5.5 or 6. You will need very little ( a few drops ) to drive the ph up or down. This product does work. Google " How to change your water's ph " and you will get lots of advice. If your ph is too high or low your plant nutrient food will sediment out and be impossible to be utilized by the plant. I suggest that you get proper hydroponic plant food. I no longer use this product but first step is to find out what your waters ph is.This will help. Good luck. sorry, i can't help you with the chemical composition.

pH is slightly low but not that bad, above 6. I add a little crushed coral in a bag just in case. Check out our flood and drain aquaponics set up!www.aquapaolics.wordpress.com to see it in action at our school

This test has several capsules for each test you want to run. My soil was really depleted. So I tested the first time to see what it needed, and then added those nutrients, and a week later tested again. I used the recommendations on the instructions to "fix" the soil, and it worked really well. The kit is easy to us. Read the FULL INSTRUCTIONS on the inside. The short version does not work. It will take a few hours or even days for some, because you have to put the soil in "purified" water, and let the soil settle to the bottom and the liquid become as clear as possible. I bought these on Amazon and if I remember right paid less than $10 for the complete kit. It was cheaper that way. I love these tests. Hope this was helpful.

it appears this is an enzyme that reduces to an inert component so I would venture to say it is septic safe.I've used this on many different materials to include carpets for pet stains, on upholstery in my cars, ponchos and tents that were stowed when still damp, life vests and the list goes on. the directions state to a apply to an inconspicuous area to test. the product works my getting item wet then letting it air dry. I've hand washed clothes then line dried with no I'll effects. And the bonus is it takes so little,like an oz?, to treat 50 gal. I mix about 1/2 oz into 1gal sprayer to use around the house. I wear vibram 5 finger shoes w/o socks and spray those weekly to eliminate the funk that can occur. I can't praise this product enough.

I use it on everything.. I mix it in with my potting soil when I use a planter.. I have not had any problems with that it seemed to work well.

I don't do soil but my answer would be no. If the soil is very wet my guess the sensor would test the water ph and not the soil/water combination.

I have well water that is about 7-9, seems like ph stays about the same, it might drop a point. This machine is awesome man it takes my 485 ppm water down to about 12

Yes. I used it in Super Soil, and it works great if you add a little more than recommended. Hope this helps!

I have clay soil and it works great for me-what I love it for most is getting rid of moss! Its my favorite garden tool, I figure it saves about half the time of using another option, plus easier on my back!

Yes its a great product! I would recommend 1/4 of the suggested amount to be used. First and foremost PH your water!!

i have a ph of 7.8 out of tap and i use a regular net bag of about 1/3 of the box i have a 90 gallon tank and it lowered my ph to 6.5 within a week ,but it will fluctuate if your doing regular water changes ,if your looking for something more stable i purchased an ro filter online for 50 dollars ioo gallon a day its much easier than trying to keep a steady ph with peat imo !!! good luck

I don't think it alters ph. It just adds trace minerals that your soil might be missing and your plants need, and adds to the health of the plant. I used this last summer and had the best garden ever.

I tried everything to use this how it was intended, didn't work well. I ended up using soil, it worked much better.
