Im trying to run perpetual grows so got fair few plants in flower at any time, keep water standing in a 100L butt and it reads at 6.5-6.6 *before* adding nutes...
Thought id got rid of all the pineapple chunk but realised i still got 2 in fkn flower, shit strain like wild bush with really thin stems...culled 20 in veg last month so hopefully these are last of it

If u leave it sit out for 24 hours the chlorine will evaporate or check out ur local water content via the interwebz or give em a bell n find out..may aswell just out of curiosity at least but whatever works for u man
If I do that I will have problems all over again, my grows are very personal lol not shared either.
The tap water here is like swimming pool even I don't drink that water lol my fridge has a filter I drink that. And only have very low plant count so not much water needed lol.
Fuck council pool water I mean tap water.
But if I was a production man or have allot more plants I would use tap water but that's never my intention and never will be.
Shit if I have extra that can get cured for when ever
But I did use it and came across shit loads of issues I didn't know what's what lmao, so I eliminate tap water and keeping ambient temps so now the ladys are asking for more food lol.....
all is good with them out of the way.

I love my tap water!!! It's terrible in the centre though. Think its PH is about 6.8-7.0.
I don't check the PH because i know my nutes push it down a bit anyway. As long as it's around 6.5 in flower that's ok.

adding silica will fatten up those stems man.zeddd suggested it a while back n even though I'm in soil which has silica I've never seen such fat stems on my girlsIm trying to run perpetual grows so got fair few plants in flower at any time, keep water standing in a 100L butt and it reads at 6.5-6.6 *before* adding nutes...

Haha. I just enjoy growing so much I wanna get every method down to a T. Coco seems simple enough especially since I'm getting pretty good with reading my girls so I'd say any coco issues I could correct very easily...was thinking with coco I'll do a drip feed method cuz the watering every day seems a bit of a ball ache
