I do tend to feed most every watering once i start fertilizing. With my 150 ppm 8.0 ph water and 10ml of
pure blend pro grow i read 1.2 ec (600ppm) at 6.3ph.
We all have to figure out how to balance these things.
In the Jorje grow book he says to manage hard water up to 250 ppm with extra runoff to help dissolve the excess calcium buildup and wash it away.
Point is the ph isnt the issue. The calcium buildup is.
When we have acidic soil we can flush out the excess nutes and basically reset the pot.
Hi MIMedGrower, I've had a full water analysis done but I can't read it well enough to under stand if its good or bad for growing weed in. It could be part of my problem, even all of it but I'm to dumb to figure it out . So I'll post my results below and if you'd have a look and tell me what you think I'd appreciate it greatly.
sodium .................................28.5 mg/L
potassium .............................2.2
calcium..................................26.6
magnesium.......................... 3.8
alkalinity ..............................129 mg/L
carbonate...............................1.51
bicarbonate..........................127
sulfate ......................................20.5
Chloride................................... 6.2
fluoride.......................................0.9
nitrate.......................................0.05
ammonia...................................0.05
arsenic........................................0.002 there's a bunch of other trace elements but they're all in the 0.002 -0.048 range
iron.............................................. 1.19
manganese ................................0.084
lead.................................................0.002
copper.............................................0.013
zinc ...................................................0.001
Total dissolved solids.............155
Total organic carbon.................1.3
Any help would be great
