Optimal pH balance is pivotal for successful hydroponic gardening. Ranging from 0 (acidic) to 14 (alkaline), maintaining a pH level between 5.5 and 6.5 is recommended for robust plant growth. Monitoring methods, such as test strips, kits, and digital meters, ensure precision in managing acidity or alkalinity. Regular testing and minor adjustments in pH levels are key to preventing plant stress and ensuring a thriving indoor garden.
