Should I use distilled water instead of tap water and jus add nutes? I have a feeling my tap water is a little on the hard side 354ppms
Dillsnillsstarted grow question 4 years ago
Is distilled water better to use than tap water? My tap water reads 354 ppm, I have a feeling it's too hard so what I'm wondering is would I be better off using distilled and add nutes rather than using tap water? The pics ik I am feeding cal mag an some N next watering.

Tap water has harmful elements for plants like chlorine just to name one. Distilled water or RO water would definetely be an healthier and more precise way to feed the plants.

Yes. A lot of my unexplainable nutrient problems went away when I switched from my 220 ppm tap water to R.O. water. Now I add Calimagic.

You 'can' feed your plants distilled water, but it can start to get pricey and you have to keep in mind that it has 0ppm. You will be losing out on some of the good additives in the water like micronutrients. If you make up for it with other micronutrients and monitor your PH then it should be fine.

That is very high ppm for tap water almost "dangerous to drink". But, your plants look great! You need to feed a little more nutrients I think, but I use rain water when possible if not my tapwater is around 99ppm.

Pre-grow in 1L pots after germ? (Autofl.)Not sure if i should put straight in the big pots after germ.
I’m going to use Batmix, but as this can be overkill of nutritions on seedlings i was thinking either dig a hole in the pot and fill it with lightmix and the rest with batm., or put them in 1L pots of lightmix first?

Purple stems-curling tips leaves point downGuys the sides stems seem really purple!even the central stem..
Why? magnesium deficiency?or genetics?
And that leaves tip pointed down; they are a problem..
Maybe N deficiency?(due the early preflowering for the wrong light cycle) Thanks :)

Será uma deficiência de cobre?Ola, sem ser a questão que já não consigo subir mais os leds e as plantas já estão a mostrar sinais de stress por causa da luz.
Agora apareceu me uma das plantas assim, com as pontas amarelas mas a ficar maior.
Fiz um flush para limpar, pois penso que seja nutrientes a mais.

How to change soil type in grow profile?Is there a way to change or amend the stats at the top of your grow page?
I am switching growing mediums and a few other things, moving from indoors to outdoors, from Pro-Mix Organic to Pro-Mix BX.
I can change and modify everything else, but not soil "type" or brand.
Cheers

How to tell when the flush has finished?How to know when the flush has finished? Can i base it off EC? Or overall fade?
Im growing in coco, bottled nutrients, flushed for almost 14 days with a flushing additive.
Ec is around 0.3 (out)
tap water is 0.1 (in)
Some leaves have fully yellowed and rotted away.
