you shouldn't need any calmag+ spring water as it contains most of the micronutes that your ladies need. they should get the rest from your nute regimen.Quote:

'Spring water' is a very generic term. Do you know this spring? What minerals and organic acids are in it? How much sodium does it have?
Spring water bottled for drinking often has too much sodium for plants, and not enough minerals. You're better off running distilled + calmag... at least you know what's in there!
Bottom line: Know your water. If you've got no way of testing the EC, then IMVHO... stick with tap water and a soil style of growing...
i stand corrected. thanks stinky!Quote:
