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.

Advanced Nutrients Perfect Ph Trio - Flower Nutrient QuestionsHi all! I'm using Advanced Nutrients Perfect PH Trio - it's been working pretty great throughout Veg. Now that I'm entering flowering, has anyone got experience with having to either add Big Bud or some other bloom nutes? Or shall I adjust the Trio ratio to favour bloom? Thanks!Week 6

Overfeeding in flower, Flushing in Coco CoirHi
my plants are very dark green due to overfeeding: I mistakenly fed 4ml/L of Canna Coco A&B for over a week, although 3.5ml is the recommended amount by Canna
Now the buds smell pretty bad
Should I flush with water, or just half strength nutes? Would this affect my yield?
ThxWeek 10

ppm controlcan you mix distilled water with regular water to lower ppm?
From what I understand from a web search
To raise the values of the ppm
I need to add more nutrients
And to lower the value
The solution is a reverse osmosis filter
Just trying to think of a cheaper solutionFeeding. Other
