Ph really isn't that big of a deal for germination but the process is slower when the levels are high... like 7.0 and up high
Mine usually pop in 1 or 2 days as wellWhy?
I use 8.0 well water. Good seeds are tap rooted in less than 24 hours in a moist coffee filter all the time. I dont adjust ph ever. Watered in tap rooted seeds emerge from the soil quickly too. Last one i showed on my thread came up in like 20 hours after planting.

I'm in the s/w area of the country, I never used a digital ph meter so I've always gone by the color and its redder than anything on the bottle.Why?

Ok I did my homework in 3 minutes lol. Well water has a higher ph because it contains more minerals and nutrients vs. City water that's been treated and filtered to get rid of pollutants.Why?

I'll do more research but I know the local water here is heavily treated and contains a lot of metals. Maybe the quality of the well water makes a difference? I shall do sum digging!

It makes a little sense, my beans usually pop in 4 days and I use the water you see at those fill up stations
Dont threatened me with a good time, I love learning this shit lolThat is too much generalization. Local city water near me has more mineral content but adjusted ph.
What is most important about the water is alkalinity. Search alkalinity and fertilizing or gardening.
So far I haven't found much other than what we all ready talked about. CDC and other sourcesThat is too much generalization. Local city water near me has more mineral content but adjusted ph.

I agree I just got a 4 by 4 tent for $90 that is fireproof & an Aglex 2000 cob for $240..together they are the best setup for your money in my opinion. Together you can stuff that tent & pull good yields off every harvest.I got the Vivosun for like $100 and it is really good. I feel like $200+ for that is expensive

all support the claim that well water is of better quality due to toxins and pollutants not being there. As far as why the ph is higher I believe that would change based on location but haven't found any definitive answers
If you bring electric from the top you won’t have hanging cords. You can pull the cords in and out of the tent to adjust slack ;)Ok here we go now we cooking with grease I am not sure if I like where my lights are hung from....
Ok this is the set up for today. I'll add and tweak shit tomorrow. Not sure if these lights are to far away??? I still have my other lights the led bulbs I can use till they get bigger lmao.
They look a little high, like your plants are stretchingOk this is the set up for today. I'll add and tweak shit tomorrow. Not sure if these lights are to far away??? I still have my other lights the led bulbs I can use till they get bigger lmao.
I put my hand just above my plants and work the light up if it's to hotThey look a little high, like your plants are stretching
Yeah hydro is going to be next grow soon as they finish remodel. But then it's on like donkey kong lmao.If you bring electric from the top you won’t have hanging cords. You can pull the cords in and out of the tent to adjust slack ;)
Looking clean bro! Can’t believe you are going hydro! I’ll be watching, I either want to try coco or hydro next.
