I've read that in veg state plant needs around 300ppm and even more as it flowers, but on some other sites I read that 150ppm is considered hard water and anything above is very hard water. So what does this indicate? Do I need "very hard" water?
Currently I have the ph drops tester from GHE and also use their ph down. It came free along with the nutrients. The digitalph meter will come with the ec/ppm meter in a kit that I ordered today.
If I use online converter I get
306 microsiemens/centimeter (μS/cm, uS/cm) = 0.306...
I just ordered digital tester for ec/ppm so I can have more accurate readings of the water that I'm using. I check ph daily, water temps are quite low. I also removed any other heat sources from the box that would cause the water temp to go up. I must say besides those leaves, roots seem to be...
I'm not very familiar with these measurements, they are European so they probably differ from US measurements. I tried using converter but I rather posted the original EU measurements because I got confused with values when converting and it seemed I could cause more problems then anything else...
This is exactly what I did today, I mixed 800ml of distilled with 1600ml of tap water. If I dont see any difference I will probably switch to distilled and add cal/mag myself.
I smoke about 15-20g per month, I think that I could pull it off in the case for my needs. Im not hiding it from...
Hi friend,
I think the reason no one is replying is that you gave too little information. Is it indoor, outdoor, which light, which substrate, which nutes, water readings etc. Without those things I dont think that anyone can give you accurate reason for the state of the plant
Thats what I was thinking of doing, should I add anything else to distilled water besides Cal/mag and GHE flora series nutes?
Will mixing tap water and distilled water make any difference?
The reason for growing in such a small space, altough legal where I am, I dont want everyone that comes...
Oh my bad, I read somewhere that its corelated. So it would still be ok to add Cal/mag with those water analysis readings?
@hotrodharley thats correct EC at 20 degrees its not .306 but 306 μS/cm. Here we have a lot of limestone therefore we should have quite hard water.
the EC is 306 μS/cm, PH is 7.7, water should be hard which is indicated by the ph
@lime73 today was the third water change, 2 of those were 2.4l of tap water. I was concerned that the high magnesium in water is not allowing the plant to absorb calcium properly so in todays third water change I...
