What is the bottled water?ppm is 300 as well.
Tend to find heavily populated areas (cities etc) often tend to have high EC water for a number of reasons.How is yours so low ?
Yes Bournemouth lolTend to find heavily populated areas (cities etc) often tend to have high EC water for a number of reasons.
for you it could be the area you live in and the water plants filtration systems as you’re close to the coast right?
Tesco Ashbeck:What is the bottled water?
Ok.Tesco Ashbeck:
GH (general hardness): 35 - 55ppm
KH (carbonate hardness): 70 - 90 ppm
Tap water:
GH: 295 - 305 ppm
KH: 160 - 180ppm
I shall try this thank youOk.
So here’s what I would do for now.
I would cut some of your bottled water with your tap water. Approx 20% and then test the EC.
lay off the Calmag as your 20% tap water will definitely have a enough in it to sustain the plant along with your nutes.
This then gives you some Ca and Cl from the tap water.
keep up your normal feeding EC.
Im coco so it’s not the same but I tend to not go above 1.5 but then I’m feeding between 2-5x a day pot size dependant.I shall try this thank you
what EC do you aim for ?
My EC is now 0.5 after doing what you said.Im coco so it’s not the same but I tend to not go above 1.5 but then I’m feeding between 2-5x a day pot size dependant.
That’s more workable and you’ve got Ca and chlorine which I think you may have either been over doing the Calmag or seeing issues with the lack Cl.My EC is now 0.5 after doing what you said.
0.4% difference
I’d say i added 25 % tap to the bottled
I see the connection possibly from what i hear wales gets a fair bit of rain too all i know is rarely stops where im at lol and as you said the more people in the place you live the higher the ec for the most part chances are unless you lucky id say

Me to lol, I love a nice bit of cheese it's a great smoke, it's not very popular these days for some reason?Looking great!
I’ll be interested to know how it smokes. I’ve seen it a bit recently and love anything cheese.
I grow with the hlg350r’s nice bit of kit, looking to get that new blackbird, maybe got the name wrong but its a beast and worth the little extraThis is my current grow, at various stages. Re running 2 phenos of fried ice cream and 4 fem champagne papi, both by lit farms.

This is in a 2mx1m with 2 hlg 350r and a 600w hps/10kmh. I’m gonna get a 1.5x3m and another 2 350r for summer and ditch the hid altogether. Can’t wait til this is finished so I can refurb the space again lmao.
thank youThat’s more workable and you’ve got Ca and chlorine which I think you may have either been over doing the Calmag or seeing issues with the lack Cl.
