7 is fine.
What is the normality (or molarity) or your acid? Drops is a pretty meaningless unit without either knowing the stock concentration or the final P concentration in your irrigation water. You probably should try to hold final P to 1-5 ppm.
There's probably a good aquarium test kit available for that. I use Hach tests at work and the P test is a simple powder pillow with an indicator that turns shades of blue based on concentration.
You are right. All i know is the phosphoric acid i use is 85%. I will try and look for a test kit. Thanks again.
