Bubble cloning with WELL WATER

I've had great success with my DIY bubble cloners. Today I went to set it up and thought... Wait a minute. I don't have city water any more. Any one with success stories using well water? I've found a couple comments of people saying they use it, but I'm looking for a little more. Thanks.

I use "city water" but it is community well water in fact (deep aquifer). The water that comes out of the ground here is obviously higher in dissolved minerals. No fluoride added. Minimal additives like chlorine, no other minerals added.

I have never PPM or PH tested the water, my plants thrive.

Right on. I've got 8 beauties that are one week into flower. They are strong and healthy and have had only well water. Come to think of it, they were from clones that I rooted in soil with my welll water. I suppose if they rooted with clonex and well water in 10 days I don't see why my water wouldn't work in the bubbler.

Either way I'm taking a sample into my hydro store to have them test it with their meters tomorrow. Hopefully that will give me some peace of mind.

If you have been growing with well water already and everything is perfect why bother with testing?
I have used this water in bubble cloners many times and have had great success.

At this point I will have my water tested because it isn't an inconvenience to do so. The hydro store is right here in town and right next to my local vape shop. I need juice so I'll be heading that way anyway.

I was looking looking for a little reassurance simply because this is the first time bubble cloning in a while and the nerves were getting to me. So thanks Old-School, you helped calm me down.

I grew some plants in dwc with well water when I lived back east. Had to replace air stones more often, but otherwise was fine.

Just got back from the hydro store and my waters ppm is 300. My worries are gone. Thanks guys.

Just an update. My clones first showed roots at 7 days. Now 10 days and roots are on average 1.5 inches long. Low ppm well water worked fine for me.
