Im currently growing in soil and only recently started adding flora series bottled nutes. I haven't bought a water ph tester yet, But i heard water ph for soil doesn’t matter is this true?
Not really. pH is crucial for uptake nuts!Im currently growing in soil and only recently started adding flora series bottled nutes. I haven't bought a water ph tester yet, But i heard water ph for soil doesn’t matter is this true?
Industrial farmers pH billions of gallons of water a year.
Sorry, but this is terrible advice. Lets say your tap water was slightly acidic at 5.9 by the time you add nutes its gonna be around a 4.9 pH or lower. I dont care how much buffering soil does, you aint growing shit watering with 4.9 pH. ALWAYS pH and ppm your input, doing anything else is just lazy and asking for issues.Been growering in soil decades and never PH.
As I always say, chasing PH numbers in soil will fuck you right up.
No need at all of plants are well and your dailed in.
Soil is always meant to be within a certain pH range. Nutrient lockout is a real thing. Using proper pH prevents this issue.
Some water doesn't have to be adjusted with acid and some water does. It depends on the bicarbonate content of the water.
So outdoor growing is impossible without ph'ing the rainfall ...hmmmmSoil is always meant to be within a certain pH range. Nutrient lockout is a real thing. Using proper pH prevents this issue.
