Do you HAVE to use Cal-Mag with RO water??
Even if you used dolomite lime in the soil?
After months of growing Im still stumped on this one.
What the hell is RO water?
Ro water = Reverse Osmosis, a water purifying technique.

Nobody know??
Off to ICMAG.....
Yes you still should use CalMag plus. It's not a buffer it replaces nutrients and minerals the RO process removes but the plant still needs.
It's always a good idea to use CalMag Plus when you RO water for anything.
where the heck can you get a decent priced RO machine from? From what I have seen, they are through the roof. Not worth it in my book...

In-addition, I still am not sold on RO water vs. tap...I am not ignorant to the particles in our drinking water, but you have to buy an RO machine, then re-add some of the micro-nutes you just took out of the "dirty water" to make it useful for the plants?? lol...see my point here??
So sell me, please...
