    Default Answered: Does pH down lose potency over time?

    I feel like when I first got my (vitalink) ph down a year ago, it was a matter of adding a few drops.
    Over time the amount of 'drops' seems to have increased... doubled, maybe. Now I'm full on squirting into the mix.

    Is it losing potency somehow?

    I know that one time I left it overnight with the lid off... I dunno if that wrecks the stuff... however the potency seemed to be slowly decreasing up til that point anyway.

    I don't know if I'm imagining it/theres another variable, or whether my vitalink is just going bad?
    If so, would all brands be the same?

    Cheers

    Phosphoric acid is hygroscopic ( absorbs water ) so it does dilute over time, but not that much if the lid is kept on
