Hi im growing on coco.
my tap water :

8.05 ph
110-120 ppm EC
KH 4 ( aquarium test kit.. KH in the sense of Alkalinity.)
GH 6-7

if i add tnt complex 2ml/l ph goes down to 7 , kh stays ca the same.EC goes up to 210 ppm.
If i add bionova ph minus to the water till i get a Ph of 5.8-5.9 i get a KH of 2! Ec hasnt changed maybe some ppms.
Does this mean that ph minus decreases alkalinity and my ph now isnt as stable as it was before (i read KH 4 is a good value) ?Should i be concerned about this ?Is my water good for coco ?
