    Default Re: Water Balance: Adjust alkalinity first, then PH

    So you are thinking a whole 4# box of borax? Any ideas on how much it will raise each of them?

    **EDIT** Actually, I just added 4# of baking soda. I think I will test later tonight and perhaps add another box of either baking soda or borax.
