Looking great! I'm running SLH from ILGM as well, just started into week 3 of flowering. It's one of those nostalgic strains for me that I'm quite familiar growing.
Anyways I thought I'dgive my 2 cents on your past questions.
I too have chalky hard water. You could easily buy a cheap distiller to solve it. I bought mine for around $ 80 online.
One of my best investments yet. Easily have already gotten my ROI on it. Over 180 gallons made thusfar. Has tons of other applicable uses. Easy to do before bed and before work.
Hell of a lot better to clean distiller than humidifier. Just run a cycle using citric acid when buildup gets too heavy and it's like new.
I also collect & filter rainwater for plants because of it & I ain't ever using anything else.
As far as CO2... well worth the investment in a quality setup. After introducing it into my grow mid veg... I seen my growth rate dramatically increase.
Instead of doubling in size during first 2 weeks of flower my slh has tripled. Not sure if it's directly correlated to the CO2 alone... but I feel it is as all the branches near my lines stretched better than those that weren't.
It's seriously shaping up to be my best grow yet for maximizing space, even though I've absent from the scene for over a decade.
Good luck with your harvest!
