hey guys
i have never used well water before and I hope for some guidance on how to properly set up a filtration system to help purify the water.
here's what I know so far. The water comes out at 1200 ppm and has a rotten egg odor to it. I'm using a steath RO 200 and it was able to knock down the PPM to 140ish, yet my plants are yellowing out from the top. Looks like an iron or mg deficiency. Most definitely a micro nutrient issue as only the new growth are affected.
I brought over my mothers since Im moving into this new location and it started yellowing out also. Would it be wise to use the GH hardwater formulation instead?
so with the PPM being that high, I still added about 3 mils of cal mag per gallon and was wondering should I get my water tested to see what exactly is in it. I'm just unsure at this moment and Im afraid i might be causing some kind of lockout without knowing it.
what other filters should I use to help get down the PPM to closer to the 30ppm mark? Any advice would help. thanks
