So I need to write a diary hu.ok

ok so on my last 2 grows I was useing UN PHed tap water through the whole grow.because I didn't have a ph yester to use.

and both the plants on my last grow came out good to very very dank.
then on the grow just befor that 1 there was 2 more plants that did great if they didn't get seeded.

and all of them got un phed tap water to drink there whole life.

then I had taken a clone from my dank indy plant 3 weeks into flowering. put it in a nother dwc thig I built. this time with ph corrected tap water. and she and my seedlings R dieing.

my tap water is 7.9-8.0 ph.
and now that I am phing my water it came out to be 5.9-6.0 ph.

so I don't know what to make of this.

Hydro unfortunatley with such a system this is exactly the problem......because you didn't test and check all your parameters before you now don't know what will work for you.....because without testing you can't even know what numbers worked for you before. To ask everyone to troubleshoot your un-ph'd tap water isn't going to get you very far.....I for one would never have put so much of my time, energy and money into a grow without at least a good ph and ppm tester. That's just begging for an issue imo.
