citric acid is used for confectionary, health food stores will have it.

check out Liptonice tea packets, from memory they are loaded with sugar and citric acid.

I found in a supermarket with the baking items like bi-carb, cream of tar tar etc. Gets used in a number of recipes
By the by... We were adicted to those lipton ice tea things last summer. Great mouth quencher when your stoned

I use citric acid for winemaking. You can find it in the homebrew shops, but here in the UK the druggies have been using it. (Don't know what for.) So many home brew shops keep it under the counter, but it's there if you ask.

Is the brown sugar recipe also valid or was that just a slip of the tongue?

I was addicted to those Nestee things myself. I wonder if it would be good to add that to the nutes?

Just wanted to bump this thread up again and also add that you can find citric acid in shops that sell supplies for baking, candy making and cake decorating. I have been using citric acid for some time in my homemade jams and fruit butters. I buy it at a Mediterranean market.
Thought any of you close to harvest might want to try it. I shall be trying this on my current grow when they go into flower.

al6 - it seems it was a slip of the keyboard. 1 oz raw sugar and 1 oz citric acid to 1 liter water. Store in cool, dark place. Then you add about a tablespoon of the solution per gallon of water used on the plants once a week.

Cheers,

I grow in N.F.T which have 80 litre reservoirs.I change the solution weekly(every Sunday)
My question is this:Can I add it on top of my nutrients?
Secondly do I add it the day before I change the solution(Saturday)so the sugar/citric acid is only in there for a day.Or do I add it at the start of the week(sunday)so it's in there all week.
Thanks in advance to whichever omniscient soul helps me out.
Cheers

I want to add my kudos to Ozgrowa for this--i put this into my skunk all thru the last grow and it came out VERY good--but the smell was really unusdual, light and lemony, in stead of skunky, complete different, people comment on it but all like it.
I added it with the nutes--I wash out the reservor every couple of weeks and change nutes
Here's a shot of the bud couple weeks before time

you can find citric acid at Home depot in the water gardening section. Its sold as a PH down for small decorative ponds wich have fish and plants. I use it for Ph control in a bubbler.

So far the clone is growing very fast and looking very healthy. This is my first bubbler attempt so i cant say for sure yet about citric acid.

can you use thesuger citric juice in soil or is it just for hydro systems?
