They are Autos, so they won't boom too big, hopfully. LOL
And I thought it would 'hurt' pinning them so, but you all do it, so hopefully it'll be okay. LOL

And I would bet you watered your plants over the summer straight from the well too.

Only when I didn't have any rain water left to use. I have a shallow well with no softener, and is pH ready. Better than any bottle water I've tested, yet.

Even if I did have a softener, I can shut it off with valves, so it's straight well water. 😎

Perfect if you ask me. I’ve had years where all I used was rainwater.

Mine is 65 feet and 30 ft to water line but I live on an aquifer outcrop with artesians all around including in the back of my property.

Well, they seemed to recover from yesterday's activities, and I had to reposition the pins.
Question: what do I do with the fan leaves resting on the potting soil?

First freeze here tonight, but I’m still going to grill!

But seriously, skip the RO water. It’ll cause more problems than it’s worth. If you can drink it, your plants can too

Good reply.
A lot of growers do not realize that in certain parts of the county water has versions of valuable nutrients locked up in covalent bonds that will only be broken in a salt enviroment.
And even then very unevenly and with PH changes.
I run RO for the same reason. 400 ppm of useless. Watered my tomatoes with tap and rain for years and until I started pitching egg shells on the pile they always had blems and spots.

I give them a few days to adjust. They will naturally try to get to the light and lift themselves. My opinion is that it's not a big deal unless they're flat out in the dirt or there for a few days.

Which is why getting the water tested or if municipal get their annual report, is always a good idea. I had my well tested when I bought the place. I probably should do it again soon.

The leaves will twist around and get off the soil probably. If they don't and it looks like they're getting yellow then you pinch them off.

Looking good Cpur.

Damn good price but it doesn’t tell all she needs to know wrt her well water. If all she wants is to test for fertilizer and ph can’t beat that price.

That looks pretty pricey!😳 and confusing! But maybe that’s just me!

Mine was right at 400’ish but it was part of closing. But when you think about what she has spent on all the other grow accessories a couple hundred is likely less than 1/5th of it.

But and practically speaking, screw it. If she can drink it use it.

All I know about Mine is the PH and the EC! A buddy brought up a blue lab three years ago and we took a look at it! Hasn’t been a problem for me!
