Hi Tang, and everyone,
Got everything in my possession now, except the soil, which I will buy today or tomorrow.
I just checked tap water's PH and it seems a little too high... Around 8. I also tested mineral water which seems perfect (6.5-7).
With the AN line of nutrients and following your schedule, should I still be concerned by that PH of 8? Should I just buy PH down, or use mineral water? This would be quite pricey but I wanna make sure my plants will be happy
Also, I've read somewhere that I might have to let some tap water rest for 24 or 48 hours to stabilise PH. Is that true?
Any advice would be highly appreciated!!
Can't wait to start btw!!
THANKS ALL!
Peace

leaving the water to sit for 24hr is done to remove some of the chemicals in the water like chlorine,these will evaporate off in the 24hrs, I also mix my nutrients in when I fill the bottles and let that sit too.
Your tap water will be fine if it's good quality, do you have an EC meter? If it's 0.4 or bellow you will be ok,most municipal tap water will be ok to use.

Thanks! No I don't have any EC meter but I'll try and get one ASAP. Do I need to worry about PPM too, and get a TDS meter as well?
Peace!

It's not a necessity bro,if you look on you suppliers website you should find all the details about your water,inc the million and one chemicals they put in but that's a different story lol.

Thanks man!
Well I went on their website and found it!!
Now the thing is, I can't really make sense of anything..!!
There's something mentioned about conductivity (at 25 Celcius degrees): The test done last month in my area reveals a value of 494 µS/cm. If I only new what unit to convert it to so that it makes sense to you, it'd do it! Let me know and I'll try to convert it properly
Thank you!!

Haha sure
Just one thing - when you mention an EC of 0.4, what's the unit? 0.4 what?
Thanks bro!
