  • pH testing strips

    Ok, I am finally going to come around from trying to just water my blueberries with rain water - to using acidified water. What is the best place to get testing strips, and what are you using for testing acidified water? I checked a pool company, but they only go down to 6.

    Here is just one example of test strips. Having a narrow range helps a lot with accuracy.

      Probably the most common brand of pH test strips is Hydrion by Micro Essentials, they offer a wide range of products with various ranges of pH sensitivity and at least some of their products are available on amazon for best bang for the buck you probably want a strip product where you tear off as much as you need like these from amazon depending on your desired range

            I also use pH strips purchased from Amazon. I use two types - a broader range one so I know what ballpark I am in, and then a more narrow one, I think from about 3 to 6.
            I precut the rolled strip into smaller pieces with scissors, and use a pair of forceps for testing. Each roll can go a long way.
