Vinegar as preservative for micro solution
I've used Excel in the past as an anti-mold preservative in my micro solutions, but it's not readily available in my area. I've recently read about using HCL or other acids.
I'm considering using distilled white vinegar (~10ml to a 500ml solution). Anyone have experience with this? Any reason it wouldn't work? Seems to make sense, it's a mild acid, much cheaper than Excel, and easier to come by than HCL.
