Is rain water a good source of water?

RatmanJRstarted grow question 5y 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.

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

Ec rising in hydro (6th week flowering - closed circuit tank and drip)At the end of every day, EC rises by 0.2 at least. Starts at 1.60 and then in their evening it goes up to 1.83 ! So I have to add water (2L) in order to go down. Does it have to do with the fact they had overfeeding, toxicities and deficiency so they don't feed well ?
