Ive heard baking soda can lead to mold/mildew, but that could be yet another myth perpetuated through RIU.
i can dig it man i never adjust my soil ph either, nor do i feed them any nutes tho...You're going to fuck everything up trying to adjust Ph in soil. Just leave it alone, Ph in soil should be the last thing on your list to fix.

well heck man use it if you got it? but keep this in mind!
most tapp water is right about 7ish, and if ideal soil ph is right about 6.5 your already right in the general area...
but the thing is soil naturally buffers the ph so if your only off a few points it realy is pointless to even mess with it...
however, and this is an important factor to keep in mind... if you are using nutes in your soil and most people are! you need to read the mfg notes, because some nutes wont work properly unless the ph is within a certain range...

wow 8 is real high smelly, i think the highest i ever seen was about 7.5 out of my tap.. thats why its always good to check b4 taking anyones advise gibbs!!
ouch!! i dont like water softeners for MJ... can you take your water b4 it goes into the softener?? and if so have the hydro store tell you what the ppm is with that water..
you lucky smelly if your tap ppm is 150, mine is over 500 fuck!!! so a ro system was a must for me...
gibbs yes! chlorine is bad bro you should always let your water sit overnight b4 giving to your plants... and do yourself a favor and find a thread about water softeners and the effects it will have on MJ, i heard it was all bad.. but i aslo heard that if you must use it you can balance the ill effects by using a flush solution regularly or even just buying some distilled water and flushing with it...
