Hello SeaMaiden,I'm on a well, roughly the same parameters you mention. I had to go to RO/DI because the hardness (specifically carbonate hardness) really caused me problems. Yeah yeah yeah, I know. The water's got Mg and Ca in it. But not in plant-available forms, that's the key.
So, try it, but if you have problems I say go directly to your source water first when trying to resolve them, instead of doing what I did and chasing your tail for a few grows. That shit can get expensive.
I'm in soil Sea, and using well water. Never had it tested, but the ph is 8 plus.. Probably very hard also I'm assuming.. I've always avoided cal mag products thinking they would get plenty from the well water. but about 3 weeks into bloom. I seem to have cal mag issues.. Could it be possible, I need to give them a taste during veg & bloom? I'm just a Fox Farm soil & water guy.. Thanks SeaI'm on a well, roughly the same parameters you mention.

Same to you and your's my brother. Just getting back on track. Had some home repairs I couldn't handle.. Had to shut er down for a tad. Hope all is well with you.. No pun intended lol..Hope all is well DP, Happly New Year Bro..
My hempy's did real good with the well water, and lucas method bro. But yeah, adjusting the ph after the nutes works much better. Glad your back on track bro. I'm thinking of doing another round hempy style. I did have less issues then soil.. Peace my brother.. Best with the new gal.. Hope she's a keeper, or you'll be out 50 cents again lol.. DPYup.....had some things go off track......but everything is real good now. Got me a new woman, the other decided she needed a change.......so I gave her 50 cents and showed her the door. No worries she decided to grow for herself now and her younger man ( no job ....ha...ha...ha)
Next I want to check the TDS in the well water.My hempy's did real good with the well water, and lucas method bro. But yeah, adjusting the ph after the nutes works much better.

Same here Z. I just have a ph pen. Might upgrade to a better one. I need to school myself on TDS & ppm's.Next I want to check the TDS in the well water.
Yes, I would think this is the case.
Thank You Sea
Thank You Sea.. Makes sense. I used cali magic for my hempy's with no issues.Yes, I would think this is the case.
