I am trying to regulate my ponds PH level, but I'm having trouble on the teaspoon conversion. Vinegar is supposed to lower my PH level so I need to put vinegar in my water, but how much?

1/4 Vinegar = 1/2 Gallon of Water My pond has 4000 Gallons of Water 1/2 = 1 gallon

1tsp = 2000 Gallons?

48 tsp in 1 cup 48cups = 2000 2000 / 48 = 41.7 Cups of Vinegar to go into a 4000 gallon pond.

Does this sounds right?

EDIT I had no idea what tags to put if somebody could retag this that would be amazing.

6 teaspoons = 1 fluid ounce, so there are 128*6 = 768 teaspoons to the gallon. At this point it's a chemistry calculation. You must test the pH of the water and the pH of the vinegar solution you add. To do this you need a pH meter or pH test tape. The water is likely not neutral.
