I use tap water to water with. I let it sit out for 24 hours before using or adding nutes to it.
It used to come out very close 7 and would drop a tad in the 24 hours to what seemed to be a perfect number - 6.5 - 6.8.
2 months later (being now) the outside temp has risen from freezing to 50-70 depending. I have also noticed my waters PH dropping to around 5.5 and then finally rising when it sits out.
Does anyone know why this might happen?
