Anyone know how often you should change Bog wood in your Tank Is it when the PH starts climbing or does it last for months

Assuming it's proper bogwood that won't rot you don't ever have to change it.
Ideally it should be soaked for a few weeks before you put it into your tank but although it will still release tannins into your tank after that- regular water changes should take care of that.
