Question about ATI Essentials Pro

[Randy Holmes-Farley]

I'm not sure the pH is that low since pH did not rise higher than 8.0 with extensive outdoor aeration, and I would not conclude you cannot do it, but I might try some additional steps as well as keeping alk itself higher than 7 dKH.

What is your alk and do you add anything to maintain it?

My alk is 8 don’t add anything
