Do you use pH Down or pH Up?

Today I was sifting through the forum about a pH problem I'm having and I see that in general people tend to have more problems with a higher pH. I want to know if this is true and maybe have this thread as proof. Me for one have NEVER EVER had a problem with a low pH, it's always been towards the higher end of the scale. What are you experiences with pH RIU??

So you use exactly the same amount of each every time?? Nutrients do the buffering but there has to be one that you use more, can't be exactly the same of each throughout all your grows.

She looks great man. What I was asking was which do you tend to use more, pH up or pH down. I think you misunderstood the poll.
