Raising water PH.

Just wondering if anyone has used Baking Soda to raise the PH of their water after adding nutrients. I have used it to raise PH in my aquarium, it works well. Just looking for the pros and cons of using it instead of chemicals.

I use it on the odd occasion when I overshoot my PH down and it works fine. Its rare I need to though as my tap water is PH 7.

If you're growing hydro, use potassium hydroxide, otherwise your soil should have enough lime to neutralize acids.
