So I've been mixing like 3ml of FF grow big to 4 gallon of water, by the time I PH down I'm up to 250ppm when I want to stay <= 200ppm, my seedlings are frying as a result. My tap starts at 150ppm, I did an experiment and just plain PHd tap water comes in at 200ppm.
I am using general hydro solid form PH down. Is it normal to see 50ppm come from your PH solution? I guess this is why people use distilled? I am off to buy a bunch and try it out. I just need to use distilled while they are little right?
Oh and the growbig says it contains calcium as well as magenesium, when I use distilled water will I be omitting anything important. Freezerboy I seem to remember having said the nute companies expect you to use tap water and if you use RO / distilled you have to add back what is missing, welll I dont know whats in my tap but its taking my damn ppm too high to grow a healthy seedling. Do I need to mix tap + distilled? I would rather use the most pure distilled water for my fragile seedlings as long as they don't need the liquid rock from my nasty tap
I'm about to sprout a sativa and hear they are even less hungry so an answer will be helpful. Also what do you guys usually start your ppms out at? I read somewhere 400 but that was frying it I'm down to 250 and still coming out with burnt new growth for the past week, I'm at 4 nodes of a big bang feminized seed if you were wondering.
Just trying to get my facts str8 so I act on accurate information.
