You understand what I was asking perfectly well, great response. I figured as much, concerning the reactions of the two. Just wanted to hear a bit more, like the experience you have where the plants respond poorly to chasing the right pH. Useful bit. Creeping up is a much more sound approach, I had just been thinking mixing the two was a no no simply because like you mentioned they're created to do two different things. Sardonic Highwalker but rest assured your chemistry skills are in tact despite being deprived of that educational experience.
Luckily I haven't had to pleasure of having to mix pH up or down into a brew but unfortunately a friend of mine does do what you've explained not to do. Poor chap. I need now to find a way to explain to him what he's doing is wrong without him thinking I'm just trying to tell him how to grow his tomatoes.
