Hello, I just recently got my grow room ready to go and bought all of my supplies, I just started germination today and now i'm running into some problems.
First of all when I use a TDS meter on my well water I get a reading of 230-250ppm. 230 for fresh and 250 if it's been sitting a bit. I'm going to be growing in soil and i'm unsure of weather I need to get a RO system or not?
Also I bought a liquid Ph kit, I don't have the funds to get a good Ph meter so I figure what the hell, i'll just use the liquid stuff for this grow. Little did I know my ph is in the 8 range and it takes wayyy too many drops for me to get the Ph in the right range. And once I finally get it correct, my ppm shoots through the roof due to soo many drops. It would take hours for me to water my babies using this method. What do you guys suggest I do?
