HGV Condition pH Up Built for Nutrient-Mixed Reservoirs
This 5-gallon HGV pH Up liquid carries a 17% KOH solution (NPK 0-0-17) to raise reservoir pH after the feed has fully blended. The high reactivity asks for upfront dilution before dosing — adding it neat to a calcium-loaded mix risks localized precipitation around HGV Base inputs. Wait until Growth or Flowering plus Base have fully homogenized, then drip the diluted solution in slowly with circulation running.
Concentrated Potassium Hydroxide pH Up at 17% KOH
As a hydroponic pH adjuster built on potassium hydroxide, every dose adds K to the solution — useful where potassium is already the dominant macro. Dose drop by drop with circulation running. Check pH after each addition, give the reservoir 5–10 minutes to stabilize, and re-test before another small bump. The 5-gallon format suits dosing reservoirs feeding multiple zones or commercial fertigation lines.
Key Features
- 17% KOH Concentration: A concentrated potassium hydroxide solution that lifts reservoir pH with small drop-wise doses across most feed strengths.
- HGV Nutrient Compatibility: Formulated to pair cleanly with HGV Base, Growth, and Flowering without nutrient interaction at the dosing point.
- NPK 0-0-17: Every pH bump adds potassium, the macro hydroponic crops already pull most heavily during veg and bloom.
- Post-Mix Application: Apply after all nutrients are fully blended to avoid precipitation around calcium-containing inputs.
- 5-Gallon Bulk Format: Sized for dosing reservoirs, multi-zone fertigation, and commercial rooms where smaller bottles run out mid-cycle.
