Now available, the new CES pH Up™ and CES pH Down™ are more concentrated than the competition and don’t contain those unwanted dyes.  The liquid pH Down is an acidic buffer that lowers water and nutrient solution pH. It contains both phosphoric acid and citric acid, the latter of which may increase nutrient stability. The pH Up product is an alkaline buffer for raising nutrient solution pH. Both of these proprietary blends are highly concentrated, yet they can be shipped without HazMat fees. These products are potent, so add to nutrient solutions slowly and carefully.  Amounts of CES pH Down required for adjustment will vary, depending on the strength of nutrient mixture and purity of the water source used.

Specifically formulated to enhance the natural processes within flowering plants that produce flavors, aromas, terpenes, and essential oils. It has no PGR’s, nor does it affect PPM allowing you to use Rezin at full strength with any Base nutrient.  This is a key differentiator as most competing products on the market will cause your PPM to fluctuate, forcing you to back-off necessary base nutrients in order to use those products at the recommended application rate.
