it is only temporary. you need to add dolomitic limestone to keep the pH up. this
is usually available at garden centers in areas with low pH water. always test the
limestone in a gallon of water to make sure it isnt "quicklime" and drives the pH up
over 8.4. Ingrid

Did I read somewhere that you can add Baking Soda in increase your PH level?
How much per gallon? Thanks, Cathy
