I'm sure there's a nursery or something near you man. They's have quality soil mixes. No matter how small a town you live in there's a way to get decent soil.

I concur, AND you can buy non-petroleum based nutrients and additives that are not cannabis specific. There's no reason for anybody to raise an eyebrow at you buying high quality gardening supplements and supplies.

seen this on roll it up. what do you guys think?
GH PH DOWN is made from phosphoric acid, which makes your reservoir pump and hoses slimy, especially during flowering. When the phosphoric acid hits the P saturated solution, a plume of phosphorus hits the water and the solution cant hold it all, some of it changes form to a solid and it becomes slime that sticks to everything it touches. I use sulfuric acid and I get no slime at all, all I have to do is rinse out my system once a week, almost no scrubbing at all.
You can get sulfuric acid at any auto parts store, just ask for battery acid. Cost is anywhere from $3.99 - $5.99 per liter, very cheap. You have to ask for it, they keep it behind the counter. Wear rubber gloves and goggles while handling it. For weaker strength, use 1/3 of a cup per gallon. For normal strength use about a half cup per gallon. Make sure you use RO water or distilled water. You dont want the chlorine from your tap water interacting with the sulfuric acid. A $3.99 container of battery acid will make about 8 or 10 gallons of PH Down.
For PH UP use 100% pure lye. One level tablespoon makes a gallon, which lasts years. Lifetime supply for under 5$.
Read the ingredients on the lye to make sure it is PURE sodium hydroxide or pure Lye in crystal form. To make the PH UP, fill a gallon container 3/4 with RO or distilled water and drop one tablespoon of lye crystals in, then top off with the rest of the water. Wear rubber gloves and goggles. I will never ever have to pay 25$ per gallon for UP or DOWN again!!!
Get it online cheap:

I'm not sure about trade rules around here, but you can probably find someone online to trade with. They can just put the nutes in soda bottles of appropriate color...or something. It's not illegal or anything.
Hell, you can most likely negotiate something with an eBay seller. There's so much competition there now that they've become flexible. Licorice flexible.

Ok cdmc, this is your intervention.
Just for right now, stop looking at alternative and experimental techniques for your grow.
You don't understand the basics yet, so introducing all these things that you really don't understand is futile at best, and dangerous at worst.
If you have experience handling and diluting strong acids and bases, then sure, go ahead and use sulfuric acid and lye, but if you don't know if you should add water to an acid or vice versa, or why it's hazardous to your health to use tap water with battery acid, or that if you use the battery acid to bring pH down and then have to use NaOH to bring it back up that you're creating sodium sulfate, and if you don't know how that affects your soil, I recommend what I've recommended before.
K.I.S.S.

I'm so confused on your system that I have no fucking clue where your ph should be...
If you're growing in dirt, you're just a tad high for my taste (I shoot for a 6.5-6.7) but not awful; if this is a hydro grow, you are wayyyyy too alkaline. When I run hydro, I maintain around 5.8.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't a full point difference equal 10x the acidity in either direction, i.e. 7.0 is 10x as alkaline as 6.0?
