hey folks. hope everyone is well. and i spread the mojo like buttering bread.
i have had a few problems in this house with my dwc. first i thought it was a ph or ppm problem, but thats not it. so then i starting blaming my nutes. i thought they might have "spoiled", if thats possible. then i got to thunkin. maybe its the main source...water. i use my tap city water. i have used water that was from a well in my old house the the ppm was higher than here.
so, i cant see buying water, and dont have the loot for a r/o system. my ppm from the tap read 315. i know it sucks. ph from tap is 6.3. sometimes more.
so, i filled a 5 gal bucket with 3 gal of water. i have it airating as we speak. ill check it later and see if there were any changes. in a couple days ill introduce roots to the water that has sat out and see if i get the same leave curling and rust color.
