pH Water Power
Water conditioner
Performs four functions:
-
Water oxidizer,
-
Bonding agent,
-
Softener,
-
Sprayer protection from limescale.
Product advantages
- pHwater Power is a strong oxidizer with a colour indicator.
Solution's pH may be determined based on the colour of solution (pH meter is not required). - Some of the pesticide active substances are only stable in acidic medium.
It means that they start degrading in neutral medium (pH 7) or alkaline medium (pH ˃ 7), thus eventually pesticide effectiveness degrades. Before spraying such pesticides, the water used for the solution should be treated to pH 5-6. - Bonding agent.
Solutions do not bounce off plants surface as much, they stick and spread better which results in higher solution efficiency. - Water softener.
Water hardness is conditioned by ions of calcium Ca2+ and magnesium Mg2+. The active agents contained in pHwater Power bond ions of calcium and magnesium, rendering them incapable of affecting pesticide efficiency. - Sprayer protection from lime scale.
If no pH meter is used (Or the agent is used for the first time):
-
Take a transparent or white bucket of known capacity (e.g. 10 l). You should clearly see a change of colour in it.
-
Fill it with water you intend to use for spraying.
-
Measure the known amount of pHwater Power (e.g. 10 ml0. Use 10 ml syringe or measuring cup.
-
Slowly drip pHwater Power into the water and mix intensively to spread the product evenly.
-
After noticing its color has turned orange see what amount of agent has remained in the measuring syringe/measuring cup.
-
Calculate the amount of used agent according to that. Write down the amount of agent used and recalculate the amount for 100 l of water.
Example of the calculations
You dripped 5.7 ml of pHwater Power into 10 l of water and its color turned orange. It means that you should add 5.7 ml x 10 = 57 ml of pHwater Power into 100 l of water
Calculation of application rates using a waterpH meter
Measure pH of water intended for spraying and select suitable application rate in the table below:
|
pH of water |

|
9,0 |
100 |
|
8,5 |
90 |
|
8,0 |
80 |
|
7,5 |
70 |
|
7,0 |
60 |

Rates of pHwater Power may vary depending on the effect of chemical properties of water and other agents used on pH of a solution.
- Fill a sprayer tank half full with water and turn on mixing. Add the amount of pHwater Power required. Following manufacturer’s recommendations add pesticides or fertilizers. Fill the sprayer tank fully with the remaining amount of water; mix continuously.
-
Ready-to-use solution must be used within 24 hours.
-
Before making a mixture read a pesticide label carefully and make sure no restrictions on the use of additives are specified.
