Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary
pH (noun)
a measure of acidity and alkalinity of a solution that is a number on a scale on which a value of 7 represents neutrality and lower numbers indicate increasing acidity and higher numbers increasing alkalinity and on which each unit of change represents a tenfold change in acidity or alkalinity and that is the negative logarithm of the effective hydrogen-ion concentration or hydrogen-ion activity in gram equivalents per liter of the solution , also the condition represented by a pH number

pH (Wikipedia)

In chemistry, pH (/pˈ/ pee-AYCH), also referred to as acidity or basicity, historically denotes "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen"). It is a logarithmic scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of aqueous solutions. Acidic solutions (solutions with higher concentrations of hydrogen (H+) ions) are measured to have lower pH values than basic or alkaline solutions.

The pH scale is logarithmic and inversely indicates the activity of hydrogen ions in the solution

where [H+] is the equilibrium molar concentration of H+ (in M = mol/L) in the solution. At 25 °C (77 °F), solutions of which the pH is less than 7 are acidic, and solutions of which the pH is greater than 7 are basic. Solutions with a pH of 7 at 25 °C are neutral (i.e. have the same concentration of H+ ions as OH ions, i.e. the same as pure water). The neutral value of the pH depends on the temperature and is lower than 7 if the temperature increases above 25 °C. The pH range is commonly given as zero to 14, but a pH value can be less than 0 for very concentrated strong acids or greater than 14 for very concentrated strong bases.

The pH scale is traceable to a set of standard solutions whose pH is established by international agreement. Primary pH standard values are determined using a concentration cell with transference by measuring the potential difference between a hydrogen electrode and a standard electrode such as the silver chloride electrode. The pH of aqueous solutions can be measured with a glass electrode and a pH meter or a color-changing indicator. Measurements of pH are important in chemistry, agronomy, medicine, water treatment, and many other applications.

What is this "Wiki" & how does the cannabis community benefit?

The Green CulturED Wiki enables you to explore, learn, and share through a knowledge base tailored to the cannabis industry. It functions like an encyclopedia, lexicon, glossary, wiki, or dictionary. This tool is useful for industry learners and professionals to learn more about resources, programs, and terms specifically in the cannabis sector.

Yes, new terms can be added by crafting individual entries, each with its own dedicated page and unique URL. By sharing resources, information, and industry information, users are able to foster community, growth, and learning. Once submitted, a glossary term is reviewed by the Green CulturED team, which will then approve or deny the submission. 

While the Green CulturED Community Wiki does not impose specific content restrictions, it is essential to adhere to general web content guidelines, which include avoiding misinformation and respecting copyright laws. For cannabis-related glossaries, it’s critical to ensure the accuracy and legality of the information presented. In addition, common courtesy and “netiquette” are part of our community user agreement, and it is crucial to maintain those levels of respect when adding new terms, comments, etc.

Glossary term categories serve as a reference tool that enhances usability, navigability, and educational value by organizing terms into groups such as industry brands, consulting firms, and seed banks.

The Green CulturED Wiki supports comments on individual glossary terms, enabling users to engage in discussions or leave feedback. This feature fosters collaborative learning and knowledge sharing within the cannabis community.
If you encounter incorrect or outdated information, please contact the site administrators directly or use the commenting feature to report inaccuracies for review and correction. Green CulturED Wiki allows for revisions, enabling updates and corrections.
Green CulturED Wiki utilizes user rights and capabilities for managing and reviewing user-contributed terms. Administrators can set specific permissions and establish review processes according to their policies.
