FFOF PH

[Skyline7575]

So does my water have to be PH’d using FFOF or does the soil take care of that? I’ve looked it up but the answers aren’t clear.

If the pH of your source water isn't too crazy, you should be ok without pH'ing it.

My tap water comes out at 8.4, I pH down

Do you PH down before you add nutrients to the water or after you add nutrients?

Would you PH the water down before add nutrients or after you add nutrients?

My tap water is set by the water bureau to be 8.2. I don't bother to pH in soil. That includes FFOF. I've never had any issue. I only pH when growing in coco. If you do pH do it after adding nutes.

"Portland's water is currently treated to be at a pH of 8.2. The pH of Portland's water can vary by a small amount in the distribution system, but it generally ranges from about 7.4 to 8.4, with a median value of 7.8 to 8.1"

Always ph after you add nutes

Add nutes, then pH.
