Plain water in between nutrient feeds

[Vitov7]

I haven't done so and I'm only in week one of edge I've been seeing a lot of YouTube videos showing a regular plane pH water feeding in between nutrient feeds... Is this needed? Im growing in Rockwool by method of drain to waste

Nutes every watering in coco and rockwool. You can increase or decrease based on what your plant is telling you. What do you mean by edge?

in rockwool drain to waste you must give nutrient at each watering
if people say that you have to give water every 3 or 4 feeds then they are overfertilizing their rockwool block and creating salts accumulation
that they are forced to dilute with periodic water only feeds ..
just stay around 1.2 mS at start and check the runoff after each watering or with a siringe by taking some liquid in the cube

you want runoff EC= feed EC
if you are in the sweet spot the ph of the runoff will be slightly mless acidic than the ph of the feed .. thats a good sign
ex : ph feed=5.5
ph runoff=5.8

good

So your saying no regular plain water at all

Love voice to text.. better than "week one of keg"..

No plain vater..

Your best friend will be a PH meter and/or ppm meter.. they are cheap and a good learning tool..
