This is very interesting. Thanks!
You do need to know how bad it is ...on par with the French or London water tho recycled 12 times..I'd have London water before Los Angles or Denver..
Scotlands even Norwegian Water ....BEST IN THE WORLD

Got me to wondering... what does it mean? Are there any trends?
The tobacco states seem to have low calcium. Looks like wheat likes hard water.
Or maybe it's a PH thing.
Hmm...
Definitely. I stopped checking runoff water now since I’ve made the water switch. The 2 stunted plants are recovering late but I’ll still run them out and use them for hash/butter.
I agree some states are backwards but in those states it should be well know that the water is poison.

Completely agree but these were definitely not overwatered. The 2 different seeds somehow were both bad (highly unlikely), the tap water is suspect (most likely), and/or the soil is bad (not likely).
Indoor growing is not easy at the best of times
Tell me about it. After killing 4 seedlings and stunting 2 of them, the two are recovering but small and the others seem to be flourishing... we will see at the end what it yields and quality.Indoor growing is not easy at the best of times
I kind of want to kill my tent off atm, few issues this run, repotted in wrong size pots, everything too close to lights and too much wind etc etc etc. Im not bad at reading my plants i just hate the damage caused until i remember what they are stressing about.
Def brought them back...looks like nitrogen deficiency (the claw)? Also a little heat/light stress?I kind of want to kill my tent off atm, few issues this run, repotted in wrong size pots, everything too close to lights and too much wind etc etc etc. Im not bad at reading my plants i just hate the damage caused until i remember what they are stressing about.
Not proud of this veg cycle, herbies freebies which said quite sariva and some sensi skunk seedlings in the back.
If you zoom in you should see the stressfull life they have led but overall ive pulled them back

These are before and after as how they grew, they are growing better now, 3 weeks so the larger two will go to flower next week. Seedlings day 5, herbies freebies let me down for the ones that should be at two weeks and next weeks are planted waiting to germinate. Two plants a week 4 week veg.
Off topic: When/if you ever made bubble hash, do you dry the trim and if so how long do you dry the trim and what process do you use to dry the trim?These are before and after as how they grew, they are growing better now, 3 weeks so the larger two will go to flower next week.

Even i find it tricky still, plants slightly heat stressed from the light, if only they would stay put. Anyway its worth it for the bud at the end, if it werent for interruptions id average a hundred plants a year, better than minimun wage
I am answering #10- I am on a well and my water is 8.1 @ 110 ppm out of the tap. Rain water here also lands about 8. I use an organic (rose hip based) absorbic acid every day to adjust my PH, plants are super happy (between that and proper food), and, I find it to be super stable (if I don't use all the water one day, it has moved by .1 if at all the next day). I'm growing in soil, organic ferts and/or teas tailored to what I've got going/how busy my schedule is (bio buzz and roots ferts if work has me running, teas when I have time to let brew), various strains. I've never heard of AA being effective at chlorine reduction- bubbling is the only idea I've read on that but I honestly don't look too closely at those threads/articles because I don't have that issue...
Ascorbic acid is and sodium ascorbate is "supposed" to completely neutralize both chlorine and chloramine, but the pH wont hold more than a day or two, which makes them only really usable for short term watering applications. I dont have any scientific proof tho. This is just from researching. I did use ascorbic at first for chloramine elimination, but now have switched to spring water (temporarily until I get a filter for my tap water) just bubble my water for a few hours, let it sit overnight then water the plants. I also read that organic matter helps reduce/eliminate chloramine, but again not sure how true that is. Ascorbic acid is supposed to be also good for the plants, but not sure how good it is for the bennies and how much of it does it take to have any ill effects on the bennies. A little amount may not be bad, a lot might be...I am answering #10- I am on a well and my water is 8.1 @ 110 ppm out of the tap. Rain water here also lands about 8.

I'd love to know if anyone does not like it and why as well
While I have read that...it is not what I've found to be the case. Through the last few grows I've tried Fox Farms (potting soil or OF depending on age), Vermifire, and KIS -all organic soils.
Dry trim as you would bud, the rest others can answer better or theres many detailed threads.
