Should I use calmag with tap water?

Craigb92 · Sep 5, 2020

hi everyone, I'm a first time grower and my tap water is moderately hard 60-80ppm should i use calmag with this? Also would it be more beneficial to use spring water and just add calmag and nutes to that?

Mine's 90's ppm, I don't add it unless a plant is showing a need for it, & it's very rare that they do
