Demineralized water to finish
Deejay_scuffstarted grow question 3y ago
Hey folks! Got a question about giving fresh water to finish. I bought some demineralized water to give them for the last week. The problem being I can't seem to get a reading on ph. I'm assuming because there's no ions in the water . Is this stuff ok to use opposed to distilled?

As long as your using fresh water with no added nutrients and the PH isn’t drastically off you’ll be fine. You aren’t wanting your plants to uptake nutrients from medium (soil, coco etc) any more, so nutrient lockout due to the PH being off shouldn’t be a worry.
The principle of flushing of flushing is to flush out the nutrients you’ve been feeding your plants from the medium so that the plants can use up what has been stored in its leaves.
Good luck bro 💪

Your right with you won't get a reading on your digital pen. For flushing out the medium and plant it shouldn't really matter to much.

Why Do a Run-Off Test?Growing in 5 gal container of coco and am now feeding 2 quarts of solution a day with no run off. How often do you test the run off and how much solution do you pour in to get run off . I basically look at the plant to see if she is handling the solution. My pH going in is @ 6.Week 8

Hydroponic or soil - differences in taste?From what I can see on this website, hydroponic systems tend to give greater yields than soil-grown projects. However, I also read that the aroma is not as rich. Did someone here try to grow the same strain once in soil and once hydroponic and can give a personal taste review?Feeding. Other

PH falling caused by dilution /hydroI noticed that when I dilute my soup too much with osmosis water in order to lower EC, PH starts falling eventually, even when my soup is a few days old (I have an air pump, it always goes up). Does it mean I have to make a new tank in that case ? why is that happening? Thanks!
