    Hi....I have been corresponding with Beth - now will include you
    all....Ref the Citric Acid 

    I obtained a one pound sack of granules from Vitamin Cottage. Any
    Health Food Store ought to have it. I did transfer it with the label
    to a glass jar to keep it dry. 

    The proportion I experimented with this past weekend - 1 1/2 cup
    Citric Acid TO 1+ quart of water. It was heated on medium in the
    crockpot. Worked better when hot. There was no sign of an odor. As
    mentioned, always remember AW Acid to Water. 

    I also will try the PHDown - Beth I couldn't remember the name when
    I wrote. I got a bottle of liquid at Home Depot. There is PH Down for
    the Lily Pond as well as the Swimming Pool! Look for the Swimming
    Pool stuff. 

    The Orchid tips have really brought a lot of great ideas my way.
    Thanks for all the info.
