Changing water types
PlanTingsstarted grow question 4y ago
Has anyone had problems in going from very soft water to hard water in the flowering stage? I was using bottled water but i started using tap water as i could see that in some other plants i was growing on the side, they grew well on tap water. Do you reckon is safe to change?

Sure is, as long as it is fit for human consumption, the tap water will be fine and not cause your plants any problem, plus it is a gazillion times cheaper than buying bottled water, which they do not need, tap water is more than safe for your plants.
Hope this helps,.........

Am I 2 weeks from harvest?Looking at people's Auto AK 47, they have harvested by now or in the next 2 weeks. The flowering parts are very plentiful (20 per plant!) but also very sparse, not close to dense bud. Are my flowers developing ok? Should I expect to harvest in 2 weeks and stop nutrients now?

Friends, help me understand what the problem of the plant is!!I can not understand that with plants different tips come most people think that the problem is nitrogen! Others say it's zinc or cal-mag! I can't decide how to properly help the plant! I also thought maybe it's too much blowing inside the box!?

Compensating for Effect of Supplements on PPMI decided that my girls probably had a calcium deficiency from using distilled water. I added a cal/mag supplement and an enzyme supplement. Now my PPM is through the roof. Should I reduce nutrient levels so that I'm still in the desired PPM range?
