Hey everyone,
I would like a simple and easy way for you to be able to diagnose your tap water for a full pH swing. Since nearly every source of unfiltered tap water is different, the pH responses are all different. I know, with enough info posted by enough growers, we can come up with a basic method which will be very helpful.
PLEASE, if it is safe to post your water report details please do so! Your information will be much more helpful to everyone if the makeup of your water is included.
Helpful information to include in your post:
WATER REPORT (Plus seasonal differences if any)
Light wattage and type
Nutrients being used
Number of plants and size
Volume of nutrient solution in reservoir
High/Low/Average Temps
High/Low/Average rH
Air pump/stone information
Liters/min or wattage/type of airpump
Helpful information to track:
Starting pH/ppm
Daily change in pH/ppm
How often you add pH up/down
How often you add nutrients
Transpiration rate (amount or rate of water usage each day)
Stage in flower
Last but not least:
Please note your efforts and/or successes so far with any details you believe may be important to others.
Thank you!
