Hi
@StealthAlien
Tap water is usually around 7-7.8 PH. fertilizers tend to lower the PH, you can apply the nutes normally. good luck mate 👍

At this point prob ok do you know what PH your water runs? Mine runs between 7.2-6.8 so I kind of know how much PH down to add (almost said up constantly doing that). You will need a way to test soon though even the dyes would do well enough.
