what is your current tap water situation?

Nasty city water 8.1 ph high ppm

I'd suggest getting down to 50-30ppm. imo it's the sweet spot as far as efficiency for a grower. less ppm would be more water waste, and really isn't needed. That's about all I have for recommendations. I can answer questions though.

I have been using water from a natural spring it’s ph fluctuate 4.8 to 6.5 no clue ppm mostly distilled water lately.

Do you use something like a TDS meter?

Big Perm · Nov 27, 2018

I'd see what that spring water has for tds, then go from there.

wizard cabbage · Nov 27, 2018

I need a tds meter the spring is on land in the country I own so I’d love to use it .

I'd check it out. You might be able to use it and not have to do ro.

what is the pH? I've found these plants are usually most happy in coco when watered with 5.6-5.8 pH.

wizard cabbage · Dec 5, 2018

5.8 -6.0 I’m feeding them 600ppm slowly up it as they grow . I topped them and I’m tucking the fan leaves down exposing budsites . Tomorrow I will cut lower branches into clones lollypopping them so I end up with 2 more Chem to fill my tent .

What you guys think about the 108ppm spring water use or not use .

I'd use it.

If you don't have a TDS/EC meter.. how do you know your tap water is not useable? pH can be adjusted.
Never seen a plant under a foot tall get lollypoped. Going to be some small clones.
