I've been 'pH free' for over 10 years. Wonderfully simple. I made up a mix earlier. Filled a wine fermenter with 20L of water from the bath tap. Carried it to the kitchen, dosed it up, took it into the hall and poured it into the nute res. Took about 5 minutes and most of that was filling the fermenter.

I was 'ph' free back in Scotland,I just added my nutes and wham,over here my tap water is around 7.5 though.

Having a database of tap water and various nutes would be handy. A new grower could look up the tap water for their region and see what nutes they can use that won't need pH adjustment.

Once you know what the ph is after adding nutes it's pretty easy to figure out
how many drops of ph down are needed. Then just like your ec and nutes
you know how many drops of ph down you need.
