I promise! But I thought i was following the instructions from the kit. I’ll post results tomorrow.

Added 16 lbs of Borax...yellow is definitely moving. One of my test kits shows 6.8 as the lowest value it tests and it’s just shy of that (leaning toward orange vs. yellow). Alkalinity still looking like 90 to me...possibly 100...but I don’t really think the color deepened from the 9th to the...

How often can i test for results?

OK...2 hours after adding the acid i should not have added: TA 90 PH test was yellow...:( Aerating now, but do have a box of Borax here...
