He will be OK using vinegar? or not to worry about the issue and fix it when he gets home? Curious about the vinegar thing myself

You can use white vinegar as a Ph down in a pinch, I just wouldn't make a habit of if it.

Even a lemon will work
Back in the day we used sulfuric acid aka Battery acid

I knew about the sodium bicarbonate but I didn't know about vinegar containing carbon ultimately raising ppm. Good stuff.

If you are in actual soil - dirt - don’t worry about adjusting pH.

Use 2-Tbs/ gallon but always check the pH before applying. I don't know what stage your grow is in, coffee is also acidic. Make a strong brew and give it to her, place the grinds on your container.
