This is a place to make observations and statements that would require too much effort and or dedication to justify its own dedicated post.

Let me start.  
From nov-march I don’t like to look at the “outdoor” section because it’s all people from Australia and I can’t relate as I am unable to grow outdoors during this time.

One drop of ph down and you lose like 3 whole points and the readings are fluctuating

The less salts in the water the harder to dial in.  
Also some spring water has buffers that make it hard to move the ph to your liking.

Soot my tap water where I moved, ph is at 8.  
Don’t have a ppm meter but I know it has high numbers because I can add ff trio and it sits right at 6.4 6.5  
Any other time it’s at 4.8-5.5  
Take at least 3ml down to move it without nutes

I have a question and hope it is ok if I pose it here. If my plants nutrients trickle down into the roots as it sleeps; will feeding them before wakeup, and quickly turn lights on after, so the roots start sucking up fresh nutes, make for a better plant? It could be done under a green light too, right? What say ye?

Bet that’s a pita, least grow I had pond water. We moved and now I’ve been using well. We have a , we’ll it’s a swamp, bottom, holler, whatever you’d call it. The ph of that is 4.5-5.5.  
So either way I’d be using a lot of up or down.  
Huh just thought about mixing half and half.  
Thanks for the thread and a chance to let genius take its course 😂

I’m calling the water company but their data sheet has "ranges " of mineral content and that is scary.

Could a simple particulate filter knock that ppm within range for you? I think home improvement stores have them pretty cheap and fairly easy to install.

Having weird situations in my veg tent. Multiple days humidity has been real high, I thought I adjusted the exhaust but it was on low contributing to high humidity. As a result? The same darn weird failure on my 2nd meizhi that occurred previously on the 1st one. Led for veg doesn’t work but bloom works. Also I can daisy chain without issue. Uggggghhhhh really tired of the meizhi issue. I just ordered 2 roleadro cobs. 189$ I did not want to spend
