Hey guys,

I'm doing my first grow hydroponically using the Bubble Ponics system and
I'm having some major pH issues. I'm using City water and I think it has tons of minerals in it, which is causing my pain...:wall:

The reason I'm saying it has a lot of minerals; I Went on vacation a few months ago leaving, a glass of water on the table next to my bed. When I came back the water level in the glass had dropped leaving a heavy chalk like ring where the previous water level existed.

Anyway, My pH will not stay below 7.5 for more than 4 hours. I adjust it down and it comes back up. I don't have anything foreign in the tank, just the things you are supposed too.

I was wondering if anyone had any luck with
Ammonia Control absorbent packets you can find in a pet store for aquariums? They look like little sponges in a wrapper. Or has anyone used Ammonia control pellets and in their tank?

Anything Else I can use? Any Advice?

Happy Holidays,

P
