BAC PH Plus 1 l
BAC pH Plus is a highly concentrated pH-raising solution based on potassium hydroxide for precise upward adjustment of nutrient solution acidity. When the pH of your feed water drops too low and your substrate becomes overly acidic, pH Plus restores values quickly and stably to the optimal range. Potassium hydroxide dissolves readily in water and provides a secondary benefit of adding a small amount of potassium to your nutrient solution. The 1 litre bottle provides extended usage thanks to the concentrated formula requiring only minimal amounts per adjustment. BAC recommends digital pH meter use for accurate results. Compatible with all substrates. Order at plantandflower.be.
BAC pH Plus 1 litre – concentrated potassium hydroxide for precise pH elevation
A pH that drops below the optimal range can be just as damaging to plant performance as one that reads too high. When acidity increases beyond the sweet spot, absorption of essential elements including calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus becomes severely compromised. BAC pH Plus is a highly concentrated pH-raising agent based on potassium hydroxide that enables rapid, controlled correction of low pH readings. As the complement to BAC pH Min, this product completes a full pH correction toolkit for every growing scenario.
When is pH Plus necessary?
Most growers reach for pH Min more frequently, as nutrient solutions typically push pH upward. However, pH Plus becomes essential in several common situations. Using organic acids or citric acid as pH correctors can overshoot and drive values too low. Some water sources have naturally low pH readings that require upward correction before use. Certain supplements can unexpectedly lower acidity after addition. In hydro systems, biological activity in the reservoir can cause significant downward pH fluctuations over time. In all these cases, BAC pH Plus restores values to the optimal 5.5 to 6.5 range depending on your substrate type, quickly and predictably.
Potassium hydroxide: effective pH correction with added benefits
BAC pH Plus is formulated with potassium hydroxide, a strong base that dissolves readily in water and raises pH effectively and predictably. A notable secondary benefit is that potassium hydroxide contributes a small amount of potassium to your nutrient solution with each correction. Potassium is a critical macro-element that plays key roles in photosynthesis, water transport, and overall stress resistance. The formula is highly concentrated, requiring only minimal quantities per adjustment to achieve the desired pH value.
- Potassium hydroxide base: effective and predictable pH elevation with a secondary potassium contribution to nutrient chemistry.
- Highly concentrated formula: minimal quantities needed per correction, ensuring the 1 litre bottle lasts through months of growing.
- Immediate solubility: mixes homogeneously with water without forming precipitates, cloudiness, or sediment.
- Universal compatibility: suitable for soil, coco, hydro, and all BAC nutrient programmes including mineral and biological lines.
Complete pH management with pH Plus and pH Min
Together with BAC pH Min, you have a complete toolkit for precise pH management across any growing environment. Always measure pH after adding all nutrients and supplements to your water. Add pH Plus drop by drop, mix thoroughly, and re-measure before reaching your target. Never add pH Plus and pH Min to the same solution simultaneously. Daily monitoring is recommended for hydro and coco systems where fluctuations occur more rapidly. Soil provides natural buffering capacity but regular checking remains important for optimal results. Store pH Plus safely and out of reach of children, as potassium hydroxide is a corrosive product requiring appropriate handling precautions. The full BAC product catalogue provides everything needed for professional-grade growing.

When should I use BAC pH Plus instead of pH Min?
Use pH Plus when your nutrient solution pH reads too low, meaning too acidic. Most growers need pH Min more frequently, but pH Plus is essential for water sources with naturally low pH or after using acidic supplements that drop pH below the optimal range for your substrate.
How much BAC pH Plus do I need per litre of water?
The required amount depends on your starting pH and target value. Always begin with a few drops per litre, mix thoroughly, and re-measure. Potassium hydroxide is highly concentrated, so a small amount typically provides sufficient correction. Never add large quantities at once to avoid overshooting your target pH.
Does BAC pH Plus add potassium to my nutrient solution?
BAC pH Plus is based on potassium hydroxide and therefore adds a small amount of potassium with each pH correction. Potassium is essential for photosynthesis and stress resistance. However, the quantity contributed is minimal and does not replace regular potassium supplementation through your base nutrition programme.
Is BAC pH Plus dangerous to handle?
Potassium hydroxide is a corrosive substance that requires careful handling. Wear gloves when dosing and avoid contact with skin and eyes. Store the product out of reach of children in a safe, dry location. When used carefully with proper dosing technique, the product is safe for regular growing use.
