Ok so I've been using RO water and AN ph perfect part A and B growing in soil. After I mix the nutes up, the ph always settles at 5.7 or 5.8. Just out of curiosity, I mixed them with straight tap water and it settles at 6.3-6.5, which I assume is better seen as I'm using soil. Should I switch to tap water half way through my grow??? At least the tap water would contain some Ca and Mg right?


Here's a link to my grow. And to clarify. It's not actually RO water, but it is 0PPM.

Im all for tap water but you gotta let it sit open so it can evaporate some of the slchlorine I personally don't mess with ph I just mix the go line nutes up and off I go I've never had bad results I could gain or I could lose if I ph I'm a medical grower for myself so I don't need lb plants I like autos because they small like this girl

Well that may be small but it sure Looks healthy!
 
I am using AN nutes.
I didn't check pH when growing in soil.
Now I growing in coco and had troubles with that, so I must check pH in next grows.
 
I use AN and tap water. It does need to sit and let the chlorine evap. I run a fish tank bubbler in my bucket for 24 hrs before mixing. The get the o2 content in the water to 100% saturated (great for root system) then mix and use. Mine always buffers to 6.2 never any issues in soil
