Would this work as a ph buffer/balancer.

OK, I'm never gowing to do this (well i should never say never) but the idea occurred to me and i just want to know if it would even work. (perhaps its been discussed before)

Putting a ph buffer in your spray bottle mixed with your water so when you sprayed your casings or whatever it'd help maintain the ph levels?

I know its more work than just throwing in some sort of long term buffer in with your mix, which is why even if it were to work there probably is no real benefit to it.

But Like i said my curiousity is killing me, and i have little understanding of why we're balancing the ph (i believe 7 is what we're going for?) Other than to reduce contamination risks.

Hopefully i used the correct terminology in this post, i am pretty unfamiliar with this aspect of growing, I've been tossing in gypsum which i believe is also supposed to assist with the levels, but i'm not entirely even sure of that...And thats about as far as i've gone with it or really cared to go.
