    Simple question about mixing nutes

    So I have some big bloom and tiger bloom from fox farms and was going to mix a half strength batch for the plants for the next week or so then full. so my question is will mixing these in distilled water have a neutral pH? What about when I go full strength? I haven't had a chance to get a test kit and i really don't want to hurt my baby that's about 7 weeks along and so close to flowering.

    Simple question about mixing nutes

    You can use distilled water but itll get a little pricey with any substantial size grow. for the price of 5 gallons of distilled you should be able to get a ph test kit from Petsmart for aquariums.. then you can check your tap water and see how close it is

    Get a simple inexpensive test kit like it was said....a wide range kit from an aquarium store to get you thru.

    Here's what's going to happen....you'll mix your feedings with your water and the pH is going to drop between 4.5 - 5.0....for soil that's very low and hydro it's still low.
    Do yourself a favor and prevent your plants from the drop and lock out from the deficiences you'll experience from too low of a pH.
