Just common water from the tap. You just need to let the chlorine evaporate and let it sit during 48H before using it.

Calcium in tap water
Is 95mg/L calcium too much in tap water? (It's probably a little lower than that, since that's exit measurement from the waterworks.) I haven't seen any signs of acute calcium toxicity, but I'm worried about buildup.

Diamond black vs. Diamond nectar by GHE
Hi everyone, I've read Diamond nectar is very good. But I noticed there is a very similar product from the same brand: diamond black. I was wondering what's the difference, and which one would be the best in an indoor grow in coco with high frequency fertigation. Thanks

Water
Is it bad to make my water ahead of time ? I mixed my nutrients (big bud, formulex, bud candy & molasses) in with the water & have let it sit out for over a day. I heard letting it sit out gets the chlorine out (I put a towel over it though so my cat/other stuff would get in it)

First time testing PPM and slightly panicked :c
Runoff was at 2200PPM. I flushed her with 5L of pH 5.8 water. I got the runoff to 1000PPM where I left it. The pH was at 7 though and was higher than before the flush. Why is that? I always pH before watering. Also, is the flush going to cause trouble for her? I kind of panicked.
