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.

Add Nutrients after 2-4 days of sometimes heavy rain for an Auto. Yes or no?I just had 4 days of sometimes heavy rain, 2 days in to it I added 1/3-1/2 my 3 day nute routine. We had 2 more days of sometimes heavy rain. Im in week 8 of an outdoor potted auto grow and I have 3 days of sun coming. Should I add nutes before they dry out? Bud rot from rain?6y ago

Struggling with knowing when to waterFirst time grow, I am using the living soil autoflower mix, struggling to know when to water at the moment I have been feeling and adding 250ml every 2-3 days for a 3 gal fabric pot. Would a soil moisture meter work well to see?Week 2

Beginning of Week 2 - Yellowing? Over/UnderFeeding?Are these first leaves showing some yellowing or is this a normal shade for leaves at this point. Just wondering if I might have overfed the plants, or even the opposite. If anyone was able to share what they think it would be extremely appreciated.3y ago

How much water can I give?Hey everyone,
I have a question. What is the maximum amount of water I can give the plants?
I'm in week 6, giving 1.5 litres every 2 days and they always seems thirsty the day after water. Can I go up and give them 2 litres and then in two weeks can I go up to 3l? If no, why?Feeding. Other

Coco grow, runoff EC levels LOWER than input levels. Hungry plants or something more sinister?Since getting a better light, runoff EC has been dropping steadily, and is now LOWER than input (~ -75 micros below). Not just an anomaly, this has been every feed for 3 days and is predictable. Could my plants be asking for more food in response to the growth from the new light?Week 4
