7.0 is a little on the high side for soil. you can grow with 7.0 but it may create complications further down the road. you generally want to aim at 6.5

do they have a ph kit at walmart that will keep it at 6.5?

also is there a way to lower or higher the ph without having to buy the ph kits or do i have to spend some money.

You can use vinigar to bring your ph down... but I wouldn't really recommend it unless you have an acurate ph meter. You could through it to much out of wack easily.
I was told though a rough estimate would be 1 drop of vinigar per liter. I have never tried this method so I can't speak from personal experience, I just went to a pet store and bought some ph down. It was even on sale, so I think it was like 3 bucks total.

I bought the PH Minus that you use for your SPA or Pool (in walmart in the pool care section, you can also get a better PH and a chlorine kit) Chlorine in the water can and will KILL a new grow (I KNow it was one of my original problems)
