Ph Problem

[apasunee]

PH is goin thru the roof, is there anything I can use that might be lying around my kitchen that will bring the levels down, I read once on this site that you can use vinegar to bring the level up or down and another product to do the opposite, does anyone know what these Items are???????? (I know about the PH up and PH down but there a little expensive right now, around 15 doll. for one.

baking soda brings it down

baking soda brings it down

WRONG.
do not use baking soda, it will raise your pH
vinegar will work to lower your pH (more acidic)

oh yeah, does anyone know how much vinigar I should add to one gallon of distilled water to rectify this ph nightmare, before I start experimenting myself. And will the vinigar have any negative reactions on maladies....
