Irrigation tap water
SisloVislo
started grow question 4y ago
I only have access to tap water ppm 280, will it be suitable for irrigation with BIOCANNA organic fertilizers? It tastes harsher than 60 ppm drinking water and ppm1 distilled water.

problem with Advanced Nutrient GroMicroBloom ! I took a photo, I hope you can see small particles from fertilizers in the water!!
I have a problem with fertilizers!! why are some particles floating in the water on a new three-day solution similar to those that have settled on the walls of the pot! that is why some kind of sediment and brown flakes and small particles that float appear on the new solution!

Is my EC ok for plain water?
Stupid question but the EC on my meter is it 0.3 or 3.7? I never really minded the EC just ppm as I grow in canna Coco plus but now I'm wondering if the EC is actually right. PH is usually 6.3-6.4.

Does this look like minor leaf burn, too many nutrients or something else?
I believe two of the plants developed minor leaf burn. One has white streaks on the middle and outer portions of several leaves, and the other has a rust, reddish stripe parallel to the center of several leaves. I’ve attached pictures above. Thoughts are greatly appreciated.

expert opinion asked ? Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder)
Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder) I'm not sure about the degree of ripeness. I used Co2 for a few weeks (1000ppm), the grower says ~60-70 days of flowering, so I would be missing 10-20 days, but they look quite ripe ? What should I do Thank you

Is it safe to use citric acid to lower ph of tap water? Organic grow
I am looking into alternative methods to organically lower the ph of my tap water. Tap water where I live normally ranges from 7.6-7.8. I have read that using vinegar can be bad for the plants overall so Im wondering about trying citric acid? Curious to know. Thanks!

PH and temp
Does the temperature of the feed alter the ph. I made some feed a week ago ph 5.9 but had to turn radiator off in the shed because snow kept melting so feed is now 10c in stead of previous 18c but I checked ph the other day and it had gone up to 9.3 can I put feed in tent 4 heat?

Ideal reservoir temp
What is the ideal reservoir water/nutrient temp? I have a 25g reservoir that is outside. I purchased a heater for it, but what is the perfect temp. My tent holds at 68-72 degree Fahrenheit. I’m assuming similar to the ambient tent temp but thought I’d ask.
