Lemon juice to lower ph

    I’m just wondering does the lemon juice kill the micros in the soil? Waiting for my ph down to get delivered but read about lemon juice. Thanks for any feedback

    I have used it in a pinch, when I ran out of down. I used it in hydro. Takes a lot compared to GH down.
    IDK if it kills my mico stuff or not. But I do a water change every 5 to 10 days depending on a few things.
    Then all is added back fresh and new.

    Acid is Acid. Lemon juice is weak as far as strength goes.
    Sulfuric (Battery Acid) is used in large scale outdoor irrigation where the local water or soil is far out of range.

    Most hardware stores carry PH up or down for swimming pools ...
