I use tap water (soft water), Canna Vega A/B and related products, with rockwool. PH is stable around 7.2 - 7.5. I PH down to 5,5 and 6-12 hours later its back up. This is my second rund and had the same problem then. Could reverse osmosis water help this, or other advices?

I also use tap water, when you PH it its best to let it sit overnight or aerate it. this will help even out the ph range and keep it more stable. for my tap water I need to add in 9 drops of phosphoric acid and bubble for 2hrs to get to stable to 6.7. if I do not bubble/aerate it. 4 drops gets me down to 6.5 but it does not stay there for long. Every city/towns tap water will be slightly different got to experiment whats best for you. Also RO water would take the waiting time out of it. its just a lot of extra money if you don't have a system installed yet. Good Luck!
