Nutrient suggestions

How do you guys regulate ph? Raise if it's too low or lower it if too high?

I vote for proper pH up and down as well. The kitchen adjusters do not last once applied. I had real issues when I tried to use vinegar in my summer grow, not worth the pain. Just get some pH up and pH down and be done with it. It takes very little for small adjustments, so it will last a long time.

Tap water: 0 ppm ?

Little chance of that unless you have distilled water coming out of your tap. You need to measure to know.

Good luck, and stay safe.

Guys..look at my previous post today.
The Bluelab EC pen only starts reading at 10ppm.
It is my understanding that most citys as a cost saving only use 3 to 5 ppm chlorine.
So I'm not sating there isn't any chlorine. What I'm saying is the pen doesn't readit that low.

Sorry,not an expert,just trying to understand.
Does it means that your tap water has less then 10 ppm EC ? Isn't that very low?
Not talking about chlorine.

It is low, and the pen only reads down to 10 ppm. So I'm lead to believe either there is no chlorine in the city water ( I doubt )...or there is less than 10ppm.
