so i was thinkin about trapin sum rain water and start usin it wat u think could i use less nutes than i am now if i use the rain water cuz i heard it was alot better for the plant than nething i could get out of a tap.

With all the N in the miracle grow, u shouldnt need to bother with the rain water, which does have good levels of N in it. But It seems to dissapate quickly if not used right away-same day. don't worry so much about nutes and all that, sounds like ur in the middle of nowhere so just sit back, chill, and watch it grow:peace:

well i just got a ph tester and found out my water is acidic drinking water and my tap is basic so i took the tap and let it stand out for 48 hrs and then added 4 tsp of MG and 1/4 gallon of the acidic drinking water and it actually balanced the level right around 6.5-6.8

do you think the rapid browning and dieing off of older leaves because of the nute burn or culd it be a lighting problem like maybe too hot . my instinct and research is pushing me toward nute burn bcuz of how fast and destructive the problem occurs/ well im just brainstorming so if neone has an idea let me kno
