So my housemate has a ph. up/down adjuster for her fish tank. Would this be of any use for plants?

Great news! Thx guys. The ph. adjuster down at the hydro shop is expensive as shit. This stuff you can buy for under $5!

Most pH adjusters have the same ingredients... Which is pretty much one primary ingredient lol. So should be good to go. Just remember to test and adjust ur pH after adding ur nutrients to the water.
Also if ur using water straight from the top and can b useful to run an airstone (via air pump) in the water for 24 hours before adding nutrients as this will allow the chlorine to evaporate (do not cover the water when bubbling it). Not so much of an issue when using synthetic nutrients, but if ur using organic nutrients it's important to burn off that chlorine as it will kill the microbial activity in the organic mix making it far less effective than it should be.
