Is rain water a good source of water?

RatmanJRstarted grow question 7y ago

Would rain water be a good source of water for indoor plants? I have always ph’d tap water; however, I have two rain tanks that I use for my outdoor tomato garden and was curious if rain water works well with cannabis. My tomatoes love it.

You can use it , you need to ph'd it like any water ( except if the ph range fits with your kind of grow ) and dn't frget that it's cal/mag free s you'll have to increase the dosage

Rain water is the best. The ph is lower than tap water. 👍

Nutrient or plain phd water?So, this girl had some deficiency that I couldn´t guess what it was so I went for ph. Now, she seems nice as I flushed her some days ago. I think she has about 2-3 weeks to go and I didn´t feed her as nice as I wanted. Do you think I should water her with nutrients or just water?
