Irrigation tap water
SisloVislostarted grow question 3 years 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.

Should be fine, try and find a water report from your township to determine the mineral content of it.
Will help you gauge if a lot or a little PH down will be needed and if you need more or less Ca and or Mg.
I only use tap water and never have had issues.
Good Luck!

We have decalcification machine. Should I add Calmag right from the start? How much? (Autoflower in mostly Biobizz Allmix)We have a decalcification machine (natrium based), so I have low magnesium/calcium. People say my soil is low in cal/mag. Should I add Biobizz Calmag on my first watering?(50% of recommendation for autos?) This one looks already droopy, doesn't it? Think I need to water soon.Feeding. Other
