Those that dose 2 part, do you dose Kalk as well?

Like the title states I'm guessing I would want to do this if I needed to raise pH?

I'm giong to dose baked baking soda and calcium chloride with dosing pumps.

I use as much kalk as top off will allow and let the 2 part make up the difference.

Do you presently have a substantial low pH problem, CBehr?

I wouldn't say so, although I do need to get another pH probe to monitor more closley again. I haven't had one since the move to my new house a month ago.

Then I'd try just the two part and see how it goes first.
