I know they say you should pu tin 6 parts washing soda, 1 part baking soda. To get a PH about 8.0
After further research i found out that you can dose baking soda only if it is in slow increments.

Thats correct, the PH swing after dosing baking soda alone will eventually correct itself. But why not adjust your dosage size and add the two part? That way you don't get any PH swing.

I do have 2 part additive. On the bottle it says to be in certain perameters before starting to use. those being alk 8-11 dkh , and calc 380-450.
So i thought I had to bring these figures up to par first. Will the 2 part increase alk and calc or does it just maintain?
